Christopher P. Duffy

For the past 25+ years, Chris has worked closely with individuals and families facing extreme hardship from mesothelioma or lung cancer caused by exposure to asbestos. He began his career learning the intricacies of asbestos product identification while meeting with clients and co-worker witnesses as an asbestos paralegal. Chris subsequently attended Suffolk University Law School in the evening program while continuing to work full-time as a law clerk in asbestos litigation. He graduated magna cum laude from Suffolk Law in 2000. Chris is a fierce advocate and competitor who takes great pride in his tireless work ethic, meticulous preparation and attention to detail, and compassion for others. Since obtaining his law degree, Chris has vigorously represented hundreds of mesothelioma clients in asbestos products and premises liability litigation and guided their lawsuits to successful resolution. Chris has obtained millions of dollars in settlements for his mesothelioma clients from manufacturers and suppliers of asbestos-containing products. He always takes the time to get to know each client and their family personally and to learn their individual backgrounds and work histories to identify every potential source of exposure to asbestos. Chris started Duffy Law LLC in 2020 to build on his extensive experience representing mesothelioma clients and their families. His civil litigation practice focuses on mesothelioma cases and asbestos litigation. Chris also handles other toxic tort, product liability, premises liability, and wrongful death cases, and serves as local counsel in Massachusetts on all phases of litigation in coordination with national trial counsel. He is admitted to practice law in all Massachusetts and Maine state courts, as well as the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. He is a member of the Massachusetts Bar Association, Boston Bar Association, Maine State Bar Association, and American Association for Justice. Chris grew up in Kennebunk, Maine, the son of public-school teachers. His father taught history and coached baseball and basketball at the high school, and his mother was a beloved third-grade teacher. Chris was inspired by his sister, Laura, an extremely dedicated record-breaking state champion distance runner, who earned a Division I athletic scholarship at the University of Minnesota. Chris was co-captain of his high school varsity basketball team for two seasons and a 2-mile standout on the two-time state champion track and field team. He went on to play basketball for Bates College in Lewiston, Maine, where he also co-captained his college team for two seasons. Chris is an avid runner, golfer, and skier. Chris lives in Marblehead, Massachusetts, with his wife Michelle and their three daughters, Caitlin, Courtney, and Madeline.
