Chris is among three candidates vying to represent the Fourth Appellate District on the State Bar Board of Trustees, and the only candidate from San Diego.  The Board of Trustees meets throughout the year to debate organizational, policy and professional issues.

Chris’ platform is based upon three core principles: providing greater public access to justice and the judicial system, protecting the public through effective oversight of the legal profession, and working to ensure adequate funding for the California court system.  Chris brings a wealth of experience to his candidacy, including stints as the President and Treasurer of the San Diego County Bar Association.

A litigator for more than 25 years, Chris has worked his entire career at Wingert Grebing.   He focuses his practice on civil trial work, including business disputes, real estate and public contract litigation, insurance matters, and personal injury cases.

Voting is underway and is open to licensed California attorneys whose address of record with the California State Bar is within the Fourth Appellate District (Imperial, Inyo, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego counties).  Ballots must be cast by mail or online by July 2, 2012.
