About Christopher J
Christopher J Carsten pairs legal training with business education. He works from an Atlanta office and practices in the state of Georgia. His background sits at the intersection of corporate concerns and courtroom procedure.
He earned a Bachelor of Arts from Georgia Tech in 2008. He returned to school for simultaneous graduate degrees at Georgia State University College of Law, receiving both a Juris Doctor and an MBA in 2012. That combination shaped how he evaluates client problems. He views legal questions through a commercial lens and business questions through a legal one.
After completing his degrees, Carsten began practicing in Georgia. Over the years he has advised clients on transactional matters, contractual disputes, and regulatory questions that affect small and mid-sized enterprises. He represents individuals and businesses before state tribunals and appears in negotiations and administrative hearings on behalf of clients. He approaches each matter by parsing the legal issues and the practical consequences for a client’s operations.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in preparing cases and direct in client communications. He spends time drafting agreements, conducting due diligence, and developing dispute resolution strategies. He also handles negotiations and works to narrow issues before litigation becomes necessary. His training in both law and business informs how he weighs risk against opportunity, and it guides the recommendations he makes to clients.
Carsten is admitted to practice in Georgia and is based at Armada Law. He balances litigation tasks with transactional work, advising clients on commercial matters and business-related legal challenges. He currently practices at Armada Law, concentrating on legal issues that arise where business and law intersect.
