Testimonials
“Having Kevin with us throughout our property dispute has been extremely valuable. Being dragged into a lawsuit is never pleasant, but with Kevin's knowledge of property laws and guidance throughout, facing the Courts System has been much less daunting. Kevin has been patient explaining the process; fair in his time; knowledgeable about the issue; and most importantly has truly listened to and responded to our questions and concerns.”
The Tippetts
“I retained Kevin for a land use dispute and his combination of attorney and surveyor were exactly the right combination of skills needed. Because of his experience as a surveyor, he has the knowledge of land laws and zoning that he was able to apply to up-front research and the legal aspects of my case going forward. He is effective in explaining things to someone unfamiliar with the legal terms or legal process so you know what to expect moving forward. ”
