Christopher Lombard ’03
New Hire
Christopher (Chris) Lombard ’03 has joined the Law School as associate director of the Office of Career Services. He will conduct student career counseling and outreach with employers, plan programming, and oversee all things related to judicial clerkships.
Lombard comes most recently from the Office of Professional and Career Development at Syracuse University College of Law, where he held the same title he now does at Lewis & Clark. Previously, Lombard practiced for several years in the Portland area, primarily in the areas of criminal defense, civil litigation, and family law. “I am extremely pleased to rejoin the Law School community, and look forward to working with its staff, faculty, students, and alumni. Lewis & Clark is such a special place to attend law school. I consider myself fortunate to now work to advance its mission.”
