Kevin Griffith

About

Whether it is a world away or here at home, I strive to help others through my work. I learned the significance of helping others from my parents who spent their careers teaching people with disabilities. In this respect, I learned one powerful lesson from my parents: be passionate about your work. I am passionate about the law and I look forward to working for you.

I joined McIntosh Law Firm as an Associate Attorney in 2013. I am a trial attorney and member in good standing of the Florida Bar Association. Prior to joining McIntosh Law Firm, I worked as a Foreign Service Limited officer with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in Afghanistan. My job in Afghanistan included monitoring and evaluating legal training programs for the Afghan Appeals Court.

My family and I are active members of the Sarasota community. I serve as the Vice-Chairman of the Sarasota County Democrat Executive Committee and I am a Board Member of the Gulf Coast Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Association. I am a parish member at Church of the Incarnation in Sarasota. We are members and frequent visitors to the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens.

Kevin Griffith earned his Juris Doctor degree from Case Western Reserve University School of Law in Cleveland, Ohio.

    "He's the BEST!!!"

    I would highly recommend Attorney Brett McIntosh, who serves Sarasota and Manatee Counties. A friend referred us to him, and he was able to charges reduced to a misdemeanor, and our case was handled very well. If it had not been, there would have been repercussions for many years for come. Mr. McIntosh is highly esteemed within the law community by his peers as well. He is a man of integrity and honesty, and his staff is excellent as well. You'll be in good hands, and well taken care of.

    "Criminal Felony charges"
    Mr. McIntosh did not set me up for failure. He did not sugar coat my charge or lie to me at any point, he was straight forward and up front about everything. He is as I was told an Attorney that State Prosecutors want to avoid at all costs due to his immense experience, his court procedure and the fight he goes out of his way to defend his clients. Mr. McIntosh is that and much more if you find yourself looking at the wrong side of the law for any reason I urge you to contact him without any doubt what so ever. He had my case dismissed without me even having to go to court once. I spent 20 years in the Military and I'm telling my fellow Brothers and Sisters here to find Brett if you have legal issues. He is not a Blue Falcon he will not give in to the Prosecutors to spare some hard work. Thank you Mr. McIntosh David King. DUSTOFF

    "Brett McIntosh is quite possibly the finest trial lawyer on the Gulf Coast"
    Mr. McIntosh is extremely professional, knowledgeable and tenacious in defending his clients. His will and drive are unmatched. He shows great compassion for his clients, and will work his tail off for you. His prices are more than reasonable for what you get in return. If you need assistance with any legal issues, don't hesitate to call Brett. Let him work for you. I did, and it's the best decision I could have made !

    "Best Criminal Defense Lawyer"
    I was arrested for a DUI and POSSESSION FIREARM CONVICTED FELON. Mr. Brett was smooth and excellent from beginning to finish. He was compassionate, calming, and confident when delivering defense strategy during my initial consultation. He provided me with case updates when needed, and more importantly, a sense of reassurance throughout the entire process. And in dramatic fashion, Brett got us the best possible plea offer to avoid prison, keep me working and home with my family. I am beyond satisfied with the results; I consider his fee as a life-saving investment. The courtroom personnel treat him with a certain level of respect, and you get the sense as a client that you have hired the best possible lawyer.

    "Compassionate, Knowledgeable Attorney"
    Two years ago I was charged with a felony and my lawyer and I agreed that a plea agreement was my best choice of action. Within the first year my lawyer died unexpectedly, two months before my first sentencing hearing. My family made numerous calls to lawyers in the Sarasota area and Brett McIntosh was recommended and took on my case. He is a very smart and knowledgeable attorney who was also easy to talk with. We discussed my situation at length and he explained every aspect of my case with me. He worked hard for a year through numerous postponements on my behalf and was able to get my sentence lowered. He is an excellent attorney who treated me like a person and not just a client. I made poor choices which led to my arrest and he believed in me and knew I was a good person. Thanks to him I will be able to get my life back on a positive track sooner than I hoped.

    "A Truly Fantastic Team"
    I've know Brett Mcintosh and his fantastic team for a few years now. Not only has he been excellent with communication, advice and support but his team has as well. They have been there for me every step of the way.

    "Brilliant, dedicated, reliable, and honest attorney"
    Mr. Brett McIntosh knew exactly what he needed to do in order for justice to prevail in my case. I'm convinced he absolutely had a game plan right out the gate to prove my innocence and restore my name. He answered all my questions promptly and honestly and knew exactly what needed to be done to have my false charges against me dismissed. Mr. McIntosh gave me my life back and I would give him 10 stars on here if I could. I'm 100% convinced he would make sure that the legal system is fair and that none of his clients would be taken advantage of by the legal system or false accusations. His incredible amount of experience (28 years) and knowledge of the law is second to none. Thank you SIR for giving me my life back. Don't take a chance and hire the absolute best....Mr. Brett Donald McIntosh.

    "At tough time in my life"
    At one of the lowest times in my life I showed up at Brett's office. I knew when I walked into his office that I was at the right place. Through my whole legal process he was professional, competent, informative, skilled and kind. The judge during my hearing paused on a side note to talk about what an amazing lawyer and man Brett was to the law profession. I was so impressed to hear amazing words about my attorney. Thank you Brett for the integrity you bring to the profession.
