Automobile Liability
KPM LAW defends facilities hosting sports and entertainment events, along with promoters, brokers and production groups in music and entertainment. We also represent professional, scholastic and youth sports leagues, administrators and coaches.
Excellence

Overview
For both personal lines and commercial insurers issuing business auto policies, more claims stem from motor vehicle accidents than any other event.
KPM has been aggressively defending insurers and their policyholders — individual, corporate, rental company, or self-insured — for over 35 years. Our extensive experience in motor vehicle accident cases has put KPM attorneys before hundreds of juries and earned the firm Martindale-Hubbell's highest 'AV' rating.
While our attorneys are experienced trial lawyers able to give immediate, informed advice regarding potential verdict awards, we are also able to provide representation in alternative dispute resolution including mediation and arbitration.
Our clients depend on KPM when the stakes — and the potential damages — are high. We coordinate professional investigators, engineers, and medical experts who collaborate with our attorneys to provide a results-oriented defense regardless of the severity of the accident.
