Overview
Kevin Gilbert is experienced in all aspects of civil litigation—from pre-litigation investigations and negotiations through trial. In his practice, Kevin has been called upon to represent clients in a wide variety of legal issues, including everything from employment and civil rights claims through complex contract, construction and insurance disputes. He now focuses on representation of public entities as both plaintiffs and defendants in litigation. Kevin has tried numerous jury and bench trials through verdict in State and Federal courts.
In addition to specializing in litigation, Kevin has extensive experience in insurance coverage, assuring any potential benefits are either provided or pursued by his clients.
