With broad-based knowledge and experience, Kevan is a strategic advisor who helps companies protect and grow their businesses and the brands that represent them. An experienced negotiator who thrives in a fast-paced environment, she offers her clients guidance on a full range of issues – from acquisitions and divestitures to the laws and regulations governing media and marketing issues, including the Federal Communications Commission and the Federal Trade Commission. When needed in complex transactions, Kevan will assemble and lead the best team of legal subject matter experts to put your company on the path to success.

She credits time spent clerking in federal bankruptcy court for giving her insight into why companies fail—and how to help them prosper. As part of Bernstein Shur’s corporate governance and M&A practices, Kevan immerses herself in every aspect of each of her client’s operations.

Kevan is passionate about helping entrepreneurs overcome obstacles to reach sustained success. Her special expertise with limited liability companies earned her a place on the Maine Bar Association committee charged with revising the State’s LLC statute, which focuses on freedom of contract.
