Incredible Service

There are no words to describe my incredible experience with Kevin; he is supportive, engaged, and exactly who you want in your corner during an unexpected trying time. From our first conversation, sharing my experience, I knew he was the person I wanted to represent me. He always took the time to ma...ke himself available and explain details of my case that may not be abundantly clear. Kevin was extremely transparent and direct in the best way; there was never a moment a sugarcoating anything, but, always went out of his way to ensure my case was set up for the upmost success. I cannot recommend Kevin and his firm more!

Great service with a little bit of Empathy!

One of the most supportive attorney’s I’ve ever met. Kevin took ever issue with my case very serious. He explained everything so that I would understand what we were up against. I would recommend Kevin to anyone seeking to find an attorney to handle your case. No doubt you will be satisfied!

Savvy Strategist with admirable integrity

Mr. Mintzer was my partner in my fight against a corporate giant who had an unlimited defense budget. He saw important and intricate aspects of my case that I had missed myself. He also took the time to understand the inner workings of my specialized industry. Kevin was calm, professional and symp...athetic throughout my case. He always was easily reachable and got back to me quickly and personally with answers to my questions. Kevin guided me through difficult challenges as well as international press coverage. He is a savvy strategist and tactician and was critical in my successful outcome. I trusted him always and still keep in touch as it was my greatest pleasure to work with him.

Kevin Mintzer

Mr. Mintzer is an excellent lawyer, highly professional and knowledgeable in his fields of expertise. He is dedicated to resolving his client's issues and works tirelessly towards achieving the legal goals of the case. When a need is best served by another attorney, he enthusiastically engages addi...tional help to excel in all tasks entrusted to him. It was my pleasure and honor to have Mr. Mintzer represent me and I would recommend him with no reservations.

Great lawyer - Hire him!

I feel lucky that I hired Kevin Mintzer as my attorney. I had spoken to at least a dozen lawyers before deciding to go with Kevin and I know I made the right call. The reason I went with him was his calming personality, which was very different from the other lawyers who all seemed very abrasive. Kev...in made a very stressful situation as calm as it could possibly be. He was very knowledgeable and very committed to my case. I would refer him without any hesitation for anyone looking for a great attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
