Background

About Christopher Hamilton

I work through Disability Rights Oregon to provide representation to people subject to a guardianship/conservatorship or who have someone asking to be their guardian/conservator when the person or someone else objects to the appointment of the guardian/conservator. I cannot be hired directly, I work by court appointment. I grew up in Tualatin with a giant family, one biological brother and numerous informally adopted siblings, and other family. I earned a BS at Western Oregon University and both a law degree and a Certificate in Dispute Resolution right here at Willamette University College of Law. If the academics matter to you, I was named outstanding Male Graduate of the class of 2009 at WOU and was ranked 8th in the class of 2012 at WUCL. I'm especially motivated to help others who, like so many of my informal siblings, have problematic biological or marital families and need help trying to maintain their autonomy and make sure the family that they've chosen (and who have chosen them back) are the ones that make any decisions they need help with. I balance my work time with time spent dancing (swing and fusion), consuming just about any form of sci-fi and fantasy (reading, watching, gaming), skiing, and connecting with the people I love.
