I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kristin over the past several years and have found the diligence and quality of her work to be excellent. She has a quick grasp of the pertinent issues involved and effectively develops and implements a tenacious defense strategy. I’ve worked with many defense attorneys over the course of my 37 year career and count her among the very best!  

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.
