Christian Chudzik-Perez

Attorney

Christian is a Minnesota attorney who brings a diverse litigation background and a client-focused approach to family law. His experience includes representing clients in personal injury and workers’ compensation litigation, where he has handled cases from initial client intake through resolution. His work has involved depositions, discovery, motion practice, negotiations, mediations, and navigating complex legal issues. This experience has shaped his ability to develop effective case strategies, communicate clearly, and advocate for clients through difficult and often emotionally challenging circumstances.

Christian’s interest in family law began during law school at Mitchell Hamline School of Law, where he volunteered with the Family Law Self-Help Clinic, assisting individuals navigating divorce, child support, custody, and parenting-time matters. He also served as a Certified Student Attorney in the Reentry Clinic, providing direct legal representation to individuals facing significant personal and legal challenges. Following law school, he gained additional experience working on family law matters, including marriage dissolutions, while practicing at Milavetz Law, P.A.

Christian believes that family law is about more than resolving legal disputes. It is about helping people navigate major life transitions while protecting what matters most to them. He values building strong relationships with his clients, setting realistic expectations, and providing thoughtful, straightforward guidance throughout the process. He is particularly drawn to The Legal Dad’s mission of helping fathers remain present and involved in their children’s lives.

Christian earned his Juris Doctor from Mitchell Hamline School of Law and his undergraduate degree in Sociology from the University of Minnesota Duluth.
