When I first met Kirk, I was an emotional mess, having recently found myself in a position I never would've imagined due to a mistake my (juvenile) son made. Initially I did not plan to seek legal representation, but then changed my mind merely hours before a disciplinary action hearing - and I am so glad I did. Kirk not only made time for us, but he was very thorough in his explanation of what we could expect and remained communicative throughout the entire ordeal. Kirk spared me a lot of stress trying to understand/navigate the legal system and ultimately helped us to get our case dismissed. I have nothing but positive things to say with regards to Kirk and will recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone in the CSRA who needs an attorney. I will definitely reach out to him should I ever need legal representation again and am already planning to use his help with creating a will.
