Overview
Christine Donahoe is a seasoned litigator who represents workers facing violations of their constitutional rights, discrimination, and sexual harassment, and employees who just need an advocate to help them leave a bad job on their own terms. She has over a decade of experience litigating in state trial and appellate courts, federal district court, and before administrative agencies.
Chris has spent her career fighting for the underdog to disrupt unjust systems that entrench poverty and discrimination. She has worked at nonprofits doing civil legal aid, civil rights, and pro-democracy impact litigation. She brings a compassionate client-centered approach to ensure that clients feel understood, heard, and in control of the direction of their cases. She strives to empower clients through the legal process.
When she’s not working, Chris is litigating and mediating household matters with her two young kids, her spouse, and a cat named Moose.
