He was later promoted to Senior Assistant and handled serious felony cases, including all varieties of drug offenses, sex offenses, and murder.

Chris started his own law firm with colleague Andrea Moseley in 2002, and that firm merged with the nationally known Law Office of John Kenneth Zwerling to form Zwerling, Leibig, and Moseley in 2005. In 2012, Chris formed the Law Office of Christopher Leibig, which works in close conjunction with his former firm and with the Law Office of Joan C. Robin, all of which are located at 114 N.
