Business Name: Chris McDonald - ADR Office of Chris McDonald

Chris McDonald is a mediator, arbitrator, and consultant with over 27 years of legal experience as a litigator of commercial, securities, and antitrust disputes, as well as being in-house counsel for a telecom company. Chris brings a “seen it from all sides” perspective to resolving commercial disputes, where he represented both corporate plaintiffs and defendants in litigation, worked as in-house and fought against corporate misconduct on behalf of shareholders and consumers.
