About Christopher
Christopher Palmer earned his J.D. from Mississippi College School of Law in 1999 and later returned to study at the University of Alabama School of Law, completing an LL.M. in 2011. Those two degrees bookend a period of professional development that blends courtroom exposure and additional academic study. The timeline signals a lawyer who moved from initial bar qualification into further legal scholarship.
After law school, Palmer established himself in Mississippi. He has practiced under the state’s rules and developed his work in local courts and legal communities. Over time he transitioned into private practice, taking on client matters through a regional firm structure. His education and years in practice have informed how he approaches legal problems and client interactions.
Palmer’s career includes his role at Palmer & Slay, PLLC. At that firm he has worked on a range of matters for clients in the state. Colleagues and court records reflect a steady presence rather than sudden headline-making litigation. He is the sort of attorney who handles routine and complex tasks and sees through matters from intake to resolution.
In professional settings he combines the training of an advanced degree with practical courtroom experience. The LL.M. indicates an investment in deeper legal study after initial qualification. That study has influenced his legal writing and analysis. Clients and peers have said his files are methodical and his courtroom presentation straightforward.
Outside of case work, Palmer participates in the Mississippi legal community. He keeps an active practice and remains engaged with local rules and procedures. He is pragmatic in how he advises clients, often breaking complicated issues into discrete choices so clients can make informed decisions.
Today Palmer practices at Palmer & Slay, PLLC. He continues to represent clients and manage matters that arise under Mississippi law. His current practice focuses on representing clients through the firm’s offices in Mississippi.
