Track Record of Excellence

Five years my brother-in-law referred me to Kevin who helped me on the successful personal injury claim when he was at Rubino Ruman. Kevin is now at a new firm of his own and once again has surrounded himself with a great team. My experience been amazing starting with the first call with his executiv...e assistant. Congratulations Kevin on your new venture. looking forward to a another speedy and successful engagement.

Excellent Attorney

Kevin helped us recover from a real estate transaction gone bad. He was very professional and trustworthy and I would highly recommend his services!

New York City quality right here in NW Indiana

Always appears to be the smartest guy in the room. Because he is. Never a concern when he's handling my business. Kevin is the only attorney I will ever use going forward. I hired him after another firm had my case for almost 5 months. In less than 3 weeks, Kevin had my situation resolved and the res...ult was better than I could have expected.

Great Small Business Lawyer

Kevin has represented our family business for many years and has always helped us through regular corporate work as well as more complex business dealings. He's well liked throughout the community and we have ultimate trust in everything he does for us. Highly recommended.

  • 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.
