Background

About Christopher Ludmer

Focusing on Employment law and business disputes for both plaintiffs and defendants, Chris Ludmer handles litigation cases throughout California. Chris has more than 27 years of trial experience, and his ability to understand and litigate cases from both sides makes him a highly respected and sought out advocate. Admired for his professionalism and ethics, sage counsel and skilled trial advocacy, many of Chris's clients are referred to him by former opposing counsel-a mark of high praise in the profession. Unlike most modern “litigators,” Chris has personally tried more than 85 cases to jury verdict, in both State and Federal Courts, where his cross-examination skills in particular have won cases and earned praise from judges, jurors, and opposing counsel. He has also litigated and reached favorable settlements in hundreds of other cases. In all cases, Chris's focus is developing innovative strategies to reach each client’s unique goals in the most effective, efficient manner possible. All this is why Chris has been honored to represent a foreign Head of State, private and public sector employees, fellow attorneys, businesses from small local start-ups to large global corporations, individuals of all kinds, and is sought out by other attorneys to provide strategic and tactical litigation assistance and even “pinch hit” for them at trial. Chris is rated AV Preeminent® by Martindale-Hubbell, the highest possible rating for legal ability and ethical standards, is consistently selected by Thomson-Reuters as a "Superlawyer" in Employment Litigation, and is recognized consistently as one of San Diego Magazine's Top Lawyers for Complex Trial Practice. A large percentage of Chris's clients are referrals from former opposing counsel in Chris's prior cases-a unique honor in the profession and a testament to Chris's skill, ethics, civility and professionalism.
