Christopher Lambert
Associate, Attorney at LawBiography
Christopher Lambert knew from a young age that he wanted to become an attorney and practice law. He followed in his mother’s footsteps, as she practiced law for a number of years. He grew up wanting to help others through the legal process, especially those going through difficult times with family disputes.
With experience in courts and with judges across the DFW metroplex and outside the DFW metroplex, Christopher has learned to think creatively. Whether he’s handling a divorce, a custody case, an enforcement, or an adoption, he’s determined to find the best solution for his clients. Sometimes that requires thinking outside the box.
Christopher takes time to truly listen to his clients. His goal is to help every client achieve the results they want in the way they want to achieve them, while also ensuring that each client understands the legal process while doing so. If the legal process leads to the courtroom, Christopher will fight and strongly advocate for his clients.
Family Law cases can be extremely sensitive, and Christopher’s clients have remarked on his calming presence in and out of court. His goal is always to resolve their issues as stress-free as possible, as family law disputes are well-known for being one of the most stressful times in an individual’s life.
Christopher graduated from SMU Dedman School of Law in 2014. Before that, he earned a Bachelor of Business Administration from Texas Tech University in 2010.
When outside the office, he enjoys spending time with family and friends, keeping up with his favorite sports teams, golfing, and mountain biking.
