Your Elder Abuse Law Specialist Since 2006

Christopher Buckley, Attorney at Law, received his undergraduate degree in Political Science from the University of California, Berkeley, where he graduated Phi Beta Kappa and with High Distinction, the equivalent of magna cum laude.  He received his law degree from the University of San Francisco, School of Law in 2004.  During his law school career, he served as an attorney intern with the San Francisco District Attorney’s office.

After law school, he began representing medical and legal professionals in malpractice actions as an associate attorney with Ed Dudensing, one of the preeminent elder abuse trial attorneys in State of California.  This is where he found his calling.
