I cannot thank Kevin Hulslander enough for the incredible job he did with my case. As I said, it is not easy having an attorney for a client, but from the very first meeting and each meeting thereafter, Kevin was both professional, extremely knowledgeable, efficient, and patient as you welcomed my input, even when unsolicited…. You were responsive, informative, and made me feel like a priority. Your expertise in contact litigation led to a successful outcome that exceeded my expectations. Again, not an easy accomplishment with an attorney for a client! I highly recommend The Smith Sovik Law Firm.

S.J., client

Smith Sovik is appropriately aggressive in an industry that requires something more than just a run of the mill attitude. More particularly, I was most impressed with your aggressive negotiation style at mediation and then your ability to appropriately modify your approach for the jury during the Paduana trial. In addition, you are well versed in NY Labor Law which is a real plus given the complexity and high damage exposure of construction claims.
