He is a skilled, experienced problem solver who represents successful medical practices and other healthcare providers, licensed professionals and healthcare related business owners in transactions and difficult legal disputes. He is licensed to practice law in Georgia and South Carolina and often represents clients throughout the country in accordance with applicable requirements.  Kevin is a Georgia native. During law school, among other internships and clerkships, Kevin served in the IRS District Counsel\u2019s office in Atlanta. Kevin worked his way through both college and law school. After completing his legal education, Kevin began his legal career with back-to-back Federal Judicial Clerkships, first for Hon. John S. Dalis, U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Georgia (1991-1993), then for Hon. Dudley H. Bowen, Jr., U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Georgia (1993-1995). He then entered the private practice of law as a business litigation associate for Hicks Maloof & Campbell (now McKenna Long & Aldridge) in Atlanta, then held a similar position with Henderson & Salley (now Hull Barrett), in Aiken, South Carolina. Kevin has maintained his own law practice for over 25 years, both in partnership with other lawyers and as a solo practitioner.  Having extensive litigation-based experience representing healthcare providers, businesses and professionals in many state and federal courts, Kevin focuses his law practice exclusively on the healthcare industry, representing medical practices, individual physicians and physician groups, other licensed healthcare providers and professionals, and closely held healthcare-related businesses. Kevin advises and represents his healthcare clients in transactions, contracts and operations, often dealing with unique and esoteric regulatory, administrative and medical board matters. He also represents and advocates for his healthcare clients in complex civil litigation in state and federal court, at the trial and appellate levels, as well as arbitration and other forms of dispute resolution.Kevin is honored to have been selected to Super Lawyers as a top rated healthcare attorney and by Best Lawyers as a healthcare and commercial litigation attorney. Kevin has held Martindale Hubbell\u2018s prestigious AV-rating for over fifteen years and is rated \u201c10\u201d by AVVO. Read original client and peer reviews posted to AVVO here.
