I am an attorney in northern Colorado and southeast Wyoming. My practice focuses on business and transaction law, estate planning, and dispute mediation. Before becoming a second-career attorney, I spent twenty years in engineering and project management at a large chemical company. Now I enjoy applying my project management thinking to complex legal problems.

Clear communication is the cornerstone of my law practice. Ambiguity, silence, and delay are avoided at every step. My clients and I follow checklists, progress calendars, and written goals to keep a project moving forward. If you have ever heard someone say "the lawyers have to look at it, so that adds three weeks" you know how frustrating it can be. I pride myself on moving quickly. Frequent communication fosters trust while the technical work progresses in the background.

I am accustomed to complex, urgent, and high-profile problem solving for engineering and legal matters alike. Often, my clients have intertwined engineering, business strategy, and legal problems. Some of my clients have intertwined business and estate planning questions. Whether you are building your business, planning for retirement, or wondering what would happen to your family if you pass away, contact me for a free consultation. 

I love fixing up old Jeeps, fixing up old houses, and flying small aircraft for fun. I grew up on the east coast but put my roots down in Fort Collins, CO. I studied engineering and physics in college before law school.

| Hired Attorney
Fast and Thorough Attorney
I hired Kevin to write a demand letter for me. I was late in getting him the information he needed, but he still handled my matter quickly, will a very detailed and thorough letter, and explained things to me in a way I understood and gave me a lot of options and told me the risks for each one. I am so grateful I hired Kevin and would do so again in the future!

Aviation Attorney | Dec 29
Relationship: Co-worker
"Among colleagues, Kevin is known as a problem solver. He is the attorney clients choose when they DON'T want to end up in court. His ability to see potential problems allows him to create documents that ensure the most protection possible for his clients. He has legal experience in estate planning, tax planning, business planning, and aviation law. A former physicist and chemist, Kevin can offer your business a perspective that many other lawyers cannot. A pilot himself, you can rest assured that a fellow pilot is taking the lead in your case."
