Chris is one of the founding partners of Johnston | Martineau, PLLP. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and went to work for a Property & Casualty Insurance Company adjusting claims.
Knowing that he wanted to help injured people through difficult times, Chris moved to the Twin Cites where he attended Hamline University School of Law. While attending Hamline, he joined a well-known Twin Cities law firm where he began that venture. In 2007, Johnston | Martineau, PLLP was formed.
Over his career, Chris has handled numerous and complicated death cases, injuries caused by drunk drivers, injuries caused by collisions with semi-trucks, injuries caused by negligent skiers, complicated and serious slip and fall cases, trip and fall cases, negligent property maintenance, as well as injuries caused by everyday automobile accidents.
In addition to personal injury cases, Chris also brings cases against debt collectors and his/her employer(s) for abusive, deceptive, and just plain unfair debt collection practices. He takes great pride in knowing that over the years, he has been able to help families and loved ones achieve a level of normalcy after suffering traumatic, painful, embarrassing, and often times burdensome losses and treatment caused by others.
Chris and his family call the Como Park neighborhood home. He enjoys spending time with his wife and two kids, other family, and friends, especially in the summer during grilling season. He also enjoys exercising, painting oils, boating with the family, and trying to maintain the yard.
