Chris Stevens

Chris Stevens has built a distinguished career in law, driven by his dedication to activism and public service. His focus on helping those in need, particularly military veterans, is evident in his work at the Deuterman Law Group, where his sole practice area is representing veterans on VA claim appeals.

Chris is a graduate of the UNC School of Law, where he earned his juris doctor and was honored with the Eugene Gressman & Daniel H. Pollitt Appellate Advocacy Award for Best Appellant Argument. He also holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Appalachian State University, with a double major in economics and marketing.

Accredited by the VA, Chris is authorized to represent veterans and their families in appeals of VA disability claims and is admitted to practice before the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. His commitment to veterans extends beyond his legal practice; he serves as the current secretary for the Military and Veterans Law Section of the North Carolina Bar Association, which oversees state bar initiatives affecting military and veterans.

Chris is also a member of the National Organization of Veterans Advocates, which includes attorneys and advocates for disabled veterans. His dedication is further reflected in his pro bono work with Elon Law's Vet Your Records clinic and his participation in the Samaritan Ministries Penny Campaign.

Outside of his legal work, Chris enjoys engaging with state and national politics, playing guitar, watching football, and participating in trivia competitions.
