Concentrating his practice in insurance defense litigation, Kevin has extensive experience defending civil and administrative matters that involve all aspects of insurance liabilities, to include premises liability, retail liability, restaurant liability, products liability, motor vehicle liability, general negligence liability, employment practices liability, bad faith liability, insurance coverage, workers’ compensation liability, and subrogation.

Kevin is a former distance runner who dreams of trails without knees, and he is a shameless golfer dreaming of the hole in one. His favorite sport is politics. His favorite religious order is the Jesuits, to whom he shamelessly credits his caustic optimism.
