Chris joined the Buzbee Law Firm in 2004, after working for two of the biggest defense firms in the nation where he defended corporations in all areas of civil litigation, in both state and federal court. 

Since joining the Buzbee Law Firm, Chris has tried scores of cases to verdict and judgment throughout Texas and the Gulf Coast, in both state and federal courts, securing extraordinary results along the way.  A testament to Chris' dedication to his clients is the many referrals he receives from his former clients, as well as from other lawyers who have entrusted him with the handling of their clients' cases.  A few examples of comments from some of Chris' recent clients:

From the daughter of a man killed in an oilfield explosion:

 -Chris, I cannot thank you enough for all you've done for us! My heart is full of gratitude to you.  Thank you so very much for believing in this case and us.  I will forever be grateful.  May God bless you and your family beyond measure!

 From a commercial diver in a Jones Act maritime case:

 --Dear Chris.  My family and I would like to thank you for all your hard work on our case.  Because of you and your staff, our lives are forever changed.  Thank You!

 From a longshoreman in a maritime negligence case:

 --Thank you Attorney Johns for your support.  We will recommend you to others in need of quality legal attention.

 From the son of a man killed in a pipeline fire:

 -I just wanted to say thank you Chris for everything you did for us.  You went above and beyond anything I expected.  Thank you with my whole heart.  You showed that my Dad was right and that was most important.  Thanks again, and God bless you Chris.

In 2011, Thomson Reuters once again recognized Chris as a "Texas Super Lawyer," as well as one of the "Top Attorneys in Texas."
