About Kevin
Biography
I'm a business-oriented attorney. My practice is my life. When I'm not working I enjoy the finer things in life- such as camping, hiking, grilling, sitting by the fire, flying my quad-line stunt kite, beer, whisky, and my family (not necessarily in that order).

Great experience with Kevin

The Only IP Attorney You Need
Kevin is the complete package when it comes to his services. His grasp of all things IP related is far superior to previous IP attorneys I've worked with.
