About William Christopher

William Christopher McGough constructed a basis in enterprise before turning to law. He graduated from Auburn University with a B.S. in Business Administration in 2001. He then earned his J.D. from Mississippi College School of Law, finishing the diploma in 2004. Those years set the stage for a career that crosses state lines and regulatory lines alike.

McGough took his first steps in private practice as an associate at Greene & Phillips, LLP in 2005. A yr later he opened his own practice, running as W. Chris McGough, LLC. He added a different dimension to his professional life in 2012 when he listed himself as proprietor and general contractor under the identical organization call. That blend of legal background and hands-on construction experience informs so much of his work nowadays.

He maintains lively bar memberships in Alabama and Wisconsin, and he is licensed to practice earlier than the Federal Circuit. His Alabama State Bar membership dates to 2005. He joined the Wisconsin State Bar in 2019. Locally, he has been a part of the Richland County Bar Association and the Greater Richland Area Chamber of Commerce since 2020. Those memberships mirror a tradition that spans both legal and network engagement.

Certifications complement his legal credentials. McGough is a certified home builder in the State of Alabama. He also holds certification as a National Flood Insurance Program insurance adjuster through FEMA. That combination locations him at the intersection of construction, insurance claims and legal counsel. It also offers him realistic insight into the technical and regulatory elements of building and post-loss procedures.

Clients and colleagues see a practitioner who has moved among roles over 20 years. He began in company practice, shifted to a sole practitioner version and added contractor duties that maintain him close to the realities of construction work. He has handled matters throughout more than one jurisdictions and brought the ones experiences back to his office.

He practices through W. Chris McGough, LLC, where he blends legal representation with construction and insurance-associated knowledge. His current practice focuses on structure-associated work, insurance adjustment and related legal issues.
