About
I have devoted my law practice to representing individuals in all manner of workplace disputes, from litigating discrimination and retaliation cases, to filing agency charges, to negotiating severance arrangements. I am also one of few lawyers in Northeast Ohio with experience and expertise in unemployment compensation law. In addition to my law practice, I also do independent workplace investigations and I have a workplace coaching practice, where I work with individuals who have performance or behavioral issues in the workplace, assisting them to contribute more effectively in all aspects of their work, focusing primarily on communication skills and social + emotional intelligence. I participated in the Coach Training Program at the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland. This blend of lawyering and coaching gives me a unique perspective on workplace issues and disputes, and allows me to work with clients in a way that is relational, empathetic, and client-centered.

Christina was nothing short of outstanding throughout the entire legal process. She was extremely professional, knowledgable and easy to work with. She definitely puts in the time and effort into her clients and goes above and beyond and it shows. She truly has a kind heart and wants to help people who have found themselves in unfortunate situations. She was very helpful, answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease during a stressful time. She also helped me win my hearing which was the best feeling ever! Thank you for all that you do, Chris!
Christina Royer is a wonderful lawyer. She took the time to listen to me and addressed all my concerns. She explained my case & the law to me very clearly. If something came up & I needed to contact her she always got back to me the same day in a timely manner. She has completely changed my view of Lawyers lol
Christina Royer did an excellent job with my consultation. I provided her with the details of my unemployment appeal telephone hearing before the Unemployment Compensation Review Commission. She consulted and provided a very thorough review and evaluation of my case, the strong points and weak points. She gave me a 5 of 10 to 6 in 10 chance of prevailing. She ultimately recommended that I represent myself in the telephone hearing, which I did. Christina was very friendly and helpful every step of the way, providing the perfect mix of professionalism, compassion and moral support. She even helped me after the hearing with advice, recommending against a further appeal of the adverse decision. I would like to highly recommend Christina Royer as an excellent attorney in the field of unemployment law.
I was unsure about obtaining counsel. I had no clue what I would be facing in a hearing. Chris blew my mind!!! She is very well versed in this and kept me on track and in the direction we were going. She had consistent precise follow up. It worked as we won!!! I couldn't be happier to have her as my lawyer. Her work on my case was incredible and she is a funny realistic individual. Thank you for your commitment and time on this Chris. I wish you nothing butter more success.
Christina was so thoughtful in preparing me for my hearing. She walked through the whole process so I knew what to expect, answering all of my questions. As she talked through her thinking, it became clear how much experience she brought to my case. She knew the styles of individual hearing officers and tailored her approach accordingly. During our discussions I never felt like I was just some other client. "Chris" was always open and seemed to genuinely understand not only the facts of my case, but where I was coming from on a personal level. I'd recommend her to anyone and retain her again in a heartbeat!
I had a great experience working with Ms. Royer on my separation negotiation with my former employer. She was a pleasure to work with, and so helpful. It really came across that she cared for her client and she had my best interest first. She listened to my case, understood the background and immediately got to work on a suggested action plan, but still considered my input and intuition. Ms. Royer's communication throughout the process was great, as she kept me informed and updated me promptly every step of the way. My case was quickly resolved with a positive outcome.
Ms. Royer's assistant returned my call very promptly. After talking with me for 20 minutes, Ms. Royer reviewed my file online and got back with me later the same afternoon. She gave me advise and invaluable information about my PUA case that was all new to me, even though I had made several previous calls with JFS directly. I feel much more confident about how to proceed with the situation, and she did not charge me anything. I am grateful and very glad I called her.
I had a wonderful experience working with Ms. Royer. She listened to my case, thoroughly explained the plan of action and immediately got to work. Ms. Royer always made a point to communicate what was happening regarding my case and tied up every loose end. My case has been resolved with a positive outcome.
Christina expertly guided, advised, and represented me through a very difficult time with a former employer. Being two states apart, all of our interaction was via phone and email and yet she was able to make me feel very comfortable immediately and kept me from losing my marbles. I would not hesitate to call on her again should that need arise.
Chris handled an interesting situation for me and I could not have been more impressed. She not only kept me informed along the way but was careful to insure that I was prepared for everything and stood as a calm and logical voice of reason throughout. Chris's knowledge of the law and legal system, her experience with the various cases and situations, and her professionalism throughout the process made a time consuming, stressful and irritating legal matter be resolved quickly with my best interests a priority.
