Christopher R. Donato

Christopher Donato’s areas of practice at Delaney & Muncey, P.C. include estate planning, estate settlement, probate matters, and corporate law.

Chris’ post law school career has been principally in the public sector. Chris served for over thirteen years with the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts where he was the first Assistant U.S Attorney for the District of Massachusetts to serve as Chief of both the Financial Litigation Unit and the Asset Forfeiture Unit. Under Chris’ leadership, both Units were consistently ranked top performer in the nation. In this capacity, Chris frequently appeared in the U.S. District Courts and Bankruptcy Courts for the District Massachusetts in addition to appearing in the U.S Court of Appeals for the First and Second Circuits. 

Chris later accepted a position as Assistant General Counsel for the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority which oversees the management of the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, the John B. Hynes Convention Center, the Boston Common Parking Garage, and the MassMutual Center in Springfield, Massachusetts. After just over two years, Chris was named General Counsel for the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority. As General Counsel, Chris oversaw the legal transformation of the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center into “Boston Hope” during the COVID Pandemic and, shortly thereafter, in his role as supervisor of the Procurement Team, Chris helped the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority achieve its first ever profitable year.
