Biography

Christopher C. Happ is a Certified Family Law Specialist (CFLS) and is licensed to practice law in the State of California.

Mr. Happ grew up in upstate New York. He earned his bachelors, masters and law degrees from the University of Pittsburgh before moving to San Diego in 2007 to take advantage of the city's beautiful year-round weather.

Upon being sworn in to practice law, Mr. Happ immediately opened Happ Law Group P.C. Since its founding, Happ Law Group P.C. has been a firm exclusively devoted to representing individuals involved in family law disputes. Mr. Happ has prepared pleadings and discovery, negotiated settlements and litigated contested hearings/trials involving all aspects of family law, including, but not limited to, custody/visitation, child and spousal support, property characterization and division, enforcement of judgments, and domestic violence. His clients have ranged from individuals with modest income to those with cases involving millions of dollars of assets.

When not practicing law, Mr. Happ enjoys playing tennis and golf as well as competing in triathlons (which includes completing Ironman Louisville in 2016 and racing in the USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships in 2018). He is also former starting shortstop for the Siena College (1996-1998) and University of Pittsburgh (1998-2000) baseball teams as well as a former college basketball referee.
