About Christopher Somma

Thank you for your interest in Somma Law PLLC. I greatly appreciate it. I will give you my professional biography below, but first, I wanted you to get to know me and why I decided to start Somma Law. I have spent the last 15 years as a lawyer practicing in the great city of Boston, Massachusetts at both large and small law firms including both Goodwin Procter LLP and Seyfarth Shaw LLP. I am licensed to practice law in Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts. I love being a lawyer and I love problem solving. Most importantly, I love helping my clients achieve their goals, both in and out of the courtroom. However, I have learned over the years that many legal needs go unmet. According to the 2018 Legal Trends Report, 40% of clients experience frustration when hiring a lawyer. The World Justice Project found that 77% of people in the United States did not get their legal needs met. My goal is to change all that by forming a client centered law firm. I want a firm that shows clients empathy, attentiveness, communicating the way you want, and an effortless experience. Stay turned because there are some exciting changes in store! A little bit more about me, I am a husband, dog lover (Brady, Peggy and Stanley) and an Ironman in training. I love volunteering and giving back. I have an active pro bono practice where I represent asylum seekers to the United States. In the past I have assisted veterans of the United States military and will be doing so again in the future. I also participate in Cycle for the Cause – The Northeast AIDS Ride where I fundraise for The Center in New York City and bike 275 miles from Boston to New York to raise awareness for those living with HIV/AIDS. Please donate generously when I start fundraising next summer! I am an avid foreign language learner (Spanish, Italian and Arabic) and am presently training for a Full Ironman race taking place in Louisville, Kentucky, October 2020 after completing a half Iron in September 2019. I look forward to working with you!
