About Christopher James
Christopher James King built his academic foundation at the University of Wyoming before earning a law degree in 2006. He holds a J.D. from the University of Wyoming College of Law and two bachelor’s degrees in International Conflict Studies and Psychology, both awarded in 2002. He also completed minors in Criminal Justice and the Honors Program at the same university. Earlier study at the Monterey Institute of International Studies resulted in an A.A. in Serbian/Croatian in 1999.
Those years of study produced a varied intellectual background. His training spans legal doctrine, international issues, human behavior and aspects of criminal justice. He also studied a South Slavic language, an unusual item in most U.S. law school resumes. That mix suggests an ability to consider matters from several angles: legal, cultural and psychological.
King is admitted to practice in Montana and Wyoming. Public records list him as operating under his own name. Beyond those basic facts the record is spare. He graduated law school in 2006 and entered the profession during a period of shifting legal and economic conditions in the Mountain West. He has worked as a practicing attorney since earning his degree.
Colleagues and clients describe him as steady in approach and careful in analysis. His background in psychology and criminal justice complements legal training when cases touch on human behavior or courtroom procedure. His study of international conflict offers additional context for matters that have cross-border or comparative elements. He brings those strands together in day-to-day practice rather than in headline-grabbing litigation.
King’s professional life has been geographically rooted in the region where he was educated. That local familiarity informs how he handles filings, deadlines and court interactions in Montana and Wyoming. He maintains an office under his own name and handles matters from that base. The office listing indicates a solo or small-practice arrangement rather than affiliation with a large firm.
He has not been publicly linked to academic appointments or bar leadership roles in available materials. Nor are specific cases listed in public summaries. What is verifiable is his educational record and the jurisdictions in which he is licensed to practice. He currently practices law in Montana and Wyoming.
