Kevin Kent prides himself on deftly guiding his clients through litigation, disputes, and regulatory actions while also working closely with them to identify and minimize future risk exposure. Clients seeking Kevin’s counsel vary from a broad spectrum of industries, including water and public infrastructure, real estate development, life sciences, financial services, casino gaming, and government.

Kevin works to best position clients for unavoidable litigation while zealously representing them through the life of the matter.

Kevin serves as a mediator in complex commercial disputes, assisting parties to resolve their differences or narrow them prior to or during litigation.
