We were very pleased with the care and compassion shown from everyone at their firm. They really worked hard for our family. When it felt like all hope was lost Miranda really came through with the best surprise a mother could ask for. She got my son home. I am forever grateful for everything they have done for us.

Danielle is not only an exceptional lawyer. She is an exceptional human being. She stood up for me when I didn't know how to stand up for myself. I appreciate her professionalism, determination, honesty and genuine compassion regarding my well being.

Why Hire Kevin Marcilliat?

Attorney Kevin Marcilliat comes from a family of lawyers and has been defending people in North Carolina since law school, where – still just a student – he won his first not-guilty verdicts.

In his early years as a law student, he took on two criminal cases and secured not-guilty verdicts for both, a remarkable achievement. His dedication to becoming a criminal defense attorney was evident from the beginning.

The pivotal factor in Kevin’s journey as a successful advocate for clients was the invaluable guidance provided by mentors. By the time Kevin graduated from law school, he had interned at the largest public defender’s office in North Carolina, the Mecklenburg County Public Defender’s Office, and later at the Federal Public Defender for the Eastern District of North Carolina in Raleigh. Upon entering private practice, Kevin was assigned to defend his first felony case within the first week on the job.
