An Honest Straight Shooter

From very beginning, Kevin was always upfront with me. When he first took on my case, I knew right away that he was the right attorney for me. I knew this because in the very first meeting, after reviewing the charges and the options on the table were grim, he told me the truth and what my expectatio...ns should be. He didn't sugar coat it, but on the same token, he also told me that its still early and he would do absolutely everything he could to help me. And he did! He gave me a list of things I needed to do right away to start helping my case and checked on me regularly to make sure I was doing them. Many of those things I believe helped the judge make her decision. But most importantly, Kevin found that the evidence the State Police claimed to have was inaccurately measured in their favor. And so he hired an expert in the field we needed, and because of that the State Police were forced to correct the details of the charges brought against me. (The State Police rounded up the quantities in order to push my charges into a Class 1 Felony) Everything Kevin did for me was by the book. He was early to every meeting and court appearance. He answered every call , text and email. And on top of that, he continued to call me and check up on me throughout my entire diversion program (2+ years) and further. I truly believe that Kevin Buchan is the reason that I was able to be with my wife for the birth of our first born. We followed his instincts and advice, and managed to turn was was looking to be an unfairly long sentence, into a diversion program that let me be with my family. To this day I am eternally grateful for what you did for me and my family. Thank you Kevin
