About Chris
Chris Filiatraut is a Michigan attorney whose career has been built around state courts and client advocacy. He combines a humanities undergraduate background with formal legal training. The result is a practice grounded in research and courtroom experience.
He earned a Bachelor of Arts in History from Wayne State University. He then completed his legal education at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law, receiving his J.D. in 1996. The history degree informs his approach to records and precedent. The law degree provided the practical foundation for litigation work.
Filiatraut’s practice has been centered in Michigan throughout his professional life. In 2010 he worked at the Mike Morse Injury Law Office. That engagement placed him in a high-volume plaintiff-oriented environment where case management and client communication are daily tasks. Prior roles before and after that year are not listed here, but his long-standing presence in the state suggests steady courtroom involvement.
He maintains current membership in professional legal organizations. Those memberships provide connections to colleagues and continuing education opportunities. He has used those resources to keep current on procedural changes and evolving case law in Michigan.
