Christopher M. Barry

Christopher M. Barry is a partner at Craig, Kelley & Faultless LLC and an Indianapolis personal injury lawyer who represents people injured through another party’s negligence. He has extensive litigation experience and prepares cases for trial when insurers or large companies do not agree to a fair resolution. His work focuses on protecting injured clients and pursuing accountability through negotiation, litigation, and jury trial when appropriate.

Chris earned a Doctor of Jurisprudence from Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law in 2006 after graduating magna cum laude from Wabash College in 2003 with a degree in Political Science. He worked as a law clerk at Craig, Kelley & Faultless during law school and joined the firm as an attorney after graduation, building his career around representation of injured people.

Chris has dedicated his legal career to plaintiff-side personal injury litigation and has been a partner with the firm since 2019. His practice includes serious accident claims and trial work against insurance companies and other defendants. His approach reflects the firm’s commitment to representing accident victims rather than responsible parties, with preparation aimed at settlement when fair and trial when litigation better serves the client.

Christopher M. Barry has been recognized by the National Trial Lawyers, Indiana Super Lawyers, and The Best Lawyers in America. His recognitions include Top 100 Indiana lawyer listings, Top 40 Under 40 recognition earlier in his career, and Indiana Rising Star selections from 2012 through 2020. He continues to combine trial preparation, personal injury advocacy, and community involvement with representation of seriously injured clients.
