Attorney Profiles
Biography
Chris Norris started his career at Baron & Budd years ago as a paralegal, honing his skills and understanding of the law in through the intensity of trial. When Chris left the firm to attend law school, he was missed. But Baron & Budd was pleased to welcome him back as an attorney, now with the credentials, as well as the temperament and passion, to represent individuals suffering from mesothelioma and other asbestos-related cancers.
“From my prior work at Baron & Budd, I knew the history of these asbestos manufacturers—how they ignored the risks their products created for American workers—and I knew what asbestos exposure had done to many of the firm’s clients,” Chris said. “When I went to law school, and when I finished, I had no doubt about the kind of work I wanted to do.”
