About:

A first generation college graduate with a goal of becoming an attorney since he was in the third grade, Chris understands firsthand the value of passion and perseverance. You can feel confident that your case will benefit from that same drive. Chris focused his law school curriculum on business law. After graduating from law school, Chris practiced in a general practice law firm for eight years. During those eight years, Chris practiced in the areas of family law, criminal defense, employment law, real estate, and general civil litigation. Since that time, he has practiced almost exclusively in family law. Chris has successfully represented clients in the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, Ohio Court of Claims, several state appellate courts, and numerous county courts across the State of Ohio. He is no stranger to a courtroom or to doggedly pursuing the right results for his clients. Being a divorced father and now remarried with a blended family, Chris understands the stresses and intricacies of the legal and real world issues that our clients face on a daily basis. After having that personal experience, Chris has dedicated his career to assisting clients with their family law issues and protecting his clients’ families, assets, and interests. Chris resides in Hilliard with his wife, three children, and dog Quinn. In his free time he enjoys music, running, playing and watching sports, visiting local breweries and distilleries, and spending time with friends and family.

"We've had more than our fair share of experience with the family law system and attorneys. Garibaldy Volney with Trolinger Law Offices has been our best attorney experience so far. He actually listened to our extremely complex and unusual situation and helped us navigate the laws that weren't written for our unusually unique situation. He helped us achieve a better outcome than we ended up with before."

"I can’t thank Michelle Meis enough for the support and professionalism she provided during one of the most emotional and difficult times in my life. From the very beginning, she was attentive, clear, and compassionate. She always made sure I understood what was happening at every step of the divorce process, and she truly advocated for what was best for me and my kids. What stood out most was how responsive and human she was never making me feel like just another case. She made a complicated, draining experience feel manageable, and her steady presence gave me confidence and peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone who is not only knowledgeable and efficient but also kind and genuinely invested in your outcome, I highly recommend Michelle. I’m deeply grateful to have had her in my corner."
