This page presents the professional biography of the founding attorney. It is not a comprehensive curriculum vitae.
A family practice, from the beginning
Christopher founded Moye Law the year he was admitted to the New York State Bar. The firm has remained in family hands ever since.
Trusts and estates is the spine of the practice. Christopher takes the position — uncomplicated, and frequently inconvenient — that family is the most important thing in any client's life, and that estate planning is therefore the most important conversation a lawyer can host. The other disciplines exist to serve that conversation: a closely-held business, an IP portfolio, a token treasury, a piece of generative art — each is family wealth, and the firm's job is to make sure it survives a generational transfer without becoming a court file.
Attorney and engineer
He is also a software CEO and a working engineer, and has been an active practitioner — not a commentator — in artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency since well before either reached general counsel calendars. The firm's AI Law and Crypto Tokens & Digital Assets practices are not branding; they are the work he was already doing, written down.
Before turning the firm to its current multi-discipline posture, he spent more than a decade as outside counsel and negotiation lead on enterprise technology and financial-services matters — including engagements with Morgan Stanley, UBS, Barclays, and Verizon.
The Binary Lawyer
He writes about the intersection of law and technology under the byline The Binary Lawyer.
