Meet the Business Owner

Chris P.

Business Owner

I’ve been involved in the Austin legal community since I was a student at the University of Texas at Austin, preparing occupational licenses, filing divorces, and making DWI videos. I went to Baylor University School of Law, graduated in 2.5 years and returned to practice here. Over that time I’ve watched the Austin legal community grow and developed a practice helping people with family law issues, business problems from breached contracts to document review for the sale of a small business, and the citizen accused criminally.

I now practice with Zinda & Davis, P.L.L.C., focusing on family law litigation; I handle divorces, modifications, suits affecting parent-​child relationships, and other issues that can arise, such as enforcement of existing decrees and orders. Typically these situations involve helping people during very stressful times in life. I enjoy what I do, and I aim to keep a practice focused on informed clients and long time relationships.
