Christopher Windsor Goodroe

Since joining the Law Offices of Lyle C. Cavin, Jr. in 2003, Christopher W. Goodroe has built his practice on the principles of attention to detail, persistence, and personal service. He has successfully litigated maritime cases in both federal and state court, and has consistently achieved exceptional results at mediation. Mr. Goodroe has represented blue and green water clients with wide ranging injuries, including toxic exposures, fractures, falls, burns, and head traumas. He thrives in the courtroom setting and presses his client's cases using every litigation tool at his disposal to ensure the best result.

Over the years Mr. Goodroe has built relationships in the maritime community which he ultimately uses to obtain better results for his clients. He makes it a priority to always be available to answer any questions or concerns a client might have about a case or potential claim, and he is personally with each client at every step in the litigation process.

Mr. Goodroe is a graduate of the University of California at Santa Barbara and California Western School of Law. Apart from representing merchant seamen, longshoremen and fisherman, he also represents victims of police brutality and excessive force, and victims of sexual assaults. When Mr. Goodroe isn't vigorously representing his clients' needs, he finds time to volunteer for the Federal Pro Bono Project where he provides legal counsel for those in need.
