Amazing

I cant say enough about Kevin. He is professional, smart, and classy. Trust me when I wish there were times he would have pulled a slime move, but he never did. (Also, my ex made Kevin's job easy since my ex hired a clown for a lawyer, and my ex kept screwing up) Kevin and his assistant always ret...urn calls & e-mails. I was very pleased how he was always in communication, and kept me abreast with what was going on. He was personable, and we would meet at the office or speak via phone before we would appear in court. He would do a "mock" trial with me, and trained me to say "OUR children" vs "MY children" I really appreciated that he knew the only thing I wanted was for my kids to be safe. Kevin represented me during my divorce as well as my DVI. This is a man who is always going to tell you the truth, and not make false promises. You can tell that he is respected by other lawyers in as they would make small talk in the hallway or elevator at the courthouse. I had 3 different judges, and when he would approach a judge, they would ask how he was doing, how was Kevins wife (also an attorney at the firm). I trusted Kevin, which is something people RARELY say about their attorney. But I was also honest with him. As I said above, were there times I wish he would pull some sketchy move - of course! You always want to win. But Kevin is a classy attorney. Best decision I ever did for OUR kids, and myself was use this firm. The children are safe, happy, and healthy.
