Superb Lawyer

Kevin is incredibly knowledgable and smart, and he is one of the very few lawyers who can handle high-conflict trial cases well. He is never afraid of litigation and will maximize your chance of winning. He won the restraining order against me in multiday trial. The opposing attorney is highly compet...itive, and I can see both him and the judge respect Kevin highly for his knowledge of law and litigation skills. He also got what I want for support and custody issues. Yes he is expensive, but he uses my money very efficiently. I highly recommend Kevin for any family cases.

Professional Excellence

Kevin was recommended to me by my uncle and was at first reluctant about changing my lawyer. You see, it is hard to find a lawyer that will stand for you since I felt that my previous lawyer do not care about me and I just met Kevin but I gave him a chance to show what he is capable of. First day in ...court and I was blown away with the way he work and defend my case. In fact, it was also obvious that the Judge was very impressed with him too. He is very organized, prepared and aggressive in court not to mention very knowledgeable in this aspect. He won my case and got more than I am expecting for. I am very blessed and fortunate our path crossed and never regret the day I hired him as my lawyer. I am very satisfied with his service and highly recommends him to whoever is looking for legal counsel help. Thank you Kevin! You are awesome!

Incompetent, Overpriced, and a Complete Waste of Time

Hired Kevin back in August 2024 for custody trial. One of his former clients warned me about his incompetence, but in my desperation, I ignored them—and I deeply regret it. I paid for absolutely nothing. The judge literally told him to “shut up and sit down” because he had no idea what he was talkin...g about. Despite providing him with detailed documentation, extensive history, photos, and multiple evaluation reports outlining exactly what needed to be said and done in court, he showed up that morning looking hungover and completely unprepared. He didn’t even seem to remember what the case was about. This man’s prime is long gone. He lives in a delusional fantasy of past successes, thinking he still has the same bite he once did. But in reality, he’s nothing more than a paper tiger—all bark, no bite. He’ll promise you the world, assure you he has everything under control, and then completely fall apart in the courtroom, leaving you to fend for yourself. As for his son Ian Hutcheson, the so-called "Assistant and office manager"—he’s nothing more than a salesman with a rehearsed pitch designed to convince you to hand over your retainer. Once they have your money, you’re on your own. He repeatedly asked me to send the same documents over and over again, even just days before my court appearance. It’s clear he has zero passion for his job—he’s just there to collect an easy paycheck from his dad. This tiny three-person office is drowning in cases. They are slow to respond, consistently unprepared for hearings, and quick to shift the blame onto their clients for their own failures. If you hire them, expect to be ignored, gaslit, and ultimately let down when it matters most. Final Verdict: Do. Not. Hire. This. POS. Lawyer. If you do, document everything via email—but even then, don’t expect it to protect you. Kevin will still find a way to screw you over, and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it. Hiring Kevin was a colossal mistake. Save yourself the frustration, money, and regret—find someone else.
