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

I’d like to take a second to say how much I’ve enjoyed working with Kevin Hulslander and Eric Johnson over the years. I’ve been adjusting claims for roughly 20 years and simply put, these attorneys are two of the best. They provide superior legal service on every file.
