A Problem Not of His Making
Kevin gave frank, independent and impartial legal advice at the highest level. There were times when his advice was frozen out. If you’re going to do something that is questionable, the last thing you will do is ask someone who will tell you so. Kevin would always give that advice. In order to avoid that advice, his was not sought, or it was sought from people who will tell them what they wanted to hear.
Kevin didn’t complain. He was just there to pick up the pieces of a problem not of his making.
