Portrait of John J. Christianson, Owner and Partner at Four Point Legal

John J. Christianson

Owner, Partner

For me, establishing long-term relationships with my clients is one of the most rewarding things about being a lawyer. I am often working with people through significant life changes, and providing peace of mind is something I strive for on a daily basis.  I pride myself on a commitment to client service, with a focus on distilling complex issues and concepts into digestible and easy to understand terms, all while finding creative solutions to difficult problems. I’m driven to work hard for my clients, with integrity and compassion.

My clients will quickly learn that I’m passionate about travel, golf, and family-style dinners with good friends.
