Todd & Weld is proud to share that its late founding partner, Christopher “Kit” Weld, has been selected as a posthumous inductee into the Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly 2025 Hall of Fame.

Widely regarded as one of Boston’s most respected trial lawyers, Chris’s legal career spanned more than four decades and was marked by excellence, integrity, and deep commitment to both clients and colleagues. After beginning his career at Hale & Dorr, he co-founded Todd & Weld LLP in 1992, helping build it into one of the region’s premier litigation firms.

Chris handled high-stakes business, construction, class action, and appellate matters with strategic insight and compassion. Beyond his legal accomplishments, he was beloved as a mentor, partner, and friend—and served as the firm’s enduring foundation.

His legacy lives on in the firm he helped create and the lives he touched throughout his remarkable career.
