About Chris
Chris Cardone entered law practice shortly after earning his J.D. in 2020. He came to the law from a liberal arts background, completing a Bachelor of Science at Fairfield University in 2017. Those years set a steady base for the legal training that followed at Seton Hall University School of Law.
Cardone's time at Seton Hall placed him in a cohort of new attorneys entering practice as the legal market adjusted to pandemic-era shifts. He finished his degree in 2020 and joined the State Bar of New Jersey the next year. Membership records show he has been active with the state bar since 2021.
He joined Lindabury, McCormick, Estabrook & Cooper, P.C. after law school. The firm has been the primary setting for his early career. At Lindabury he has handled client matters and courtroom work that arise for a mid-sized regional firm. Peers describe him as steady in routine docket work and attentive to procedural detail.
On admission, Cardone was credentialed to practice in New Jersey and gained the ability to appear before the United States Tax Court. That admission opens a federal forum for tax litigation and disputes over federal tax determinations. The combination of state bar membership and Tax Court admission gives him a range of forums in which to represent clients.
He balances litigation and office responsibilities typical of an associate at a full-service firm. His workload has included drafting pleadings, responding to discovery, and appearing in hearings. Those tasks have given him hands-on experience with both trial preparation and client counseling.
Outside the office, Cardone maintains ties to the New Jersey legal community through bar association activity. He has remained a member of the State Bar of New Jersey since 2021 and participates in the professional networks available there. His public profile is built around steady practice development rather than courtroom headlines.
He currently practices at Lindabury, McCormick, Estabrook & Cooper, P.C., and accepts matters in New Jersey and before the United States Tax Court.
