Our company faced a complex wrongful termination lawsuit that threatened our reputation. Kevin Hamilton's deep expertise in labor and employment litigation was immediately evident. His strategic counsel, honed over 15+ years at Perkins Coie, was invaluable. He guided us through every step with clarity and professionalism, securing a favorable settlement. His recognition as a multi-time 'Lawyer of the Year' is well-deserved. Kevin is not just a brilliant attorney; he's a trusted advisor who protects his clients with unwavering dedication.
