Meet Our FOUNDER
The Jensen Law Firm was founded by
Christian Jensen, Esq.
Christian and his colleagues provide legal expertise and practical perspective honed for well over a decade, first at one of New Jersey’s largest and most respected law firms and then as a partner at a premier, business-focused boutique law firm.
The founding of the Jensen Law Firm in 2020 was a capstone and allows Christian to bring his expertise in complex business matters including high-stakes contracts, litigation and M&A to the world of the high-performing athlete.
The firm focuses on efficient support of business goals and expectations as opposed to task-oriented outcomes. Whether negotiating agreements as a certified NFLPA contract advisor/agent, name/image/likeness ("NIL") deals or other outside business agreements, Christian and the Jensen Law Firm dissect both the client business and the process to help achieve practical results.
With his significant experience representing closely-held companies of all sizes from start-ups to multiple-transaction ventures, Christian represents clients in state and federal courts at the trial and appellate levels, as well as in various alternative dispute resolution forums.
Christian proudly earned a Bachelor of Arts from the Johns Hopkins University and a Juris Doctor cum laude from the Seton Hall University School of Law, where he was a Presidential Scholar,
He is admitted to practice before the state courts in New Jersey and New York, as well as federal courts including:
-
The District Court for the District of New Jersey
-
The District Courts for the Southern, Northern and Eastern Districts of New York
-
The Third Circuit Court of Appeals
Super Lawyers magazine has recognized Christian as a Super Lawyer and, previously, as a Rising Star for a number of years,a distinction bestowed on less than 2.5% of attorneys in New Jersey.**
