Our founder, Kevin M. Maki has been fighting for the legal rights of accident victims since 2006. Originally from Ventura County, Mr. Maki went to the University of California – Santa Barbara for a degree in Law and Society. His first job was with a leading insurance company in California. This work experience allowed Mr. Maki to gain valuable experience with injury claims. While working full-time, Mr. Maki attended law school. After graduation, he joined the legal department of the insurance company, with a focus on handling personal injury claims. One of the premier panel law firms was impressed by Mr. Maki’s work and recruited him to open a new office in Conejo Valley. Working at the insurance company and the law firm allowed Mr. Marki to handle thousands of lawsuits and provided him with exposure to a variety of claims and lawsuits. This includes car accident claims, bad faith insurance claims, dog bite claims, wrongful death claims, motorcycle accident claims, slip and fall accident claims, and more. While Mr. Maki achieved remarkable success working at insurance companies, he grew weary of going up against the accident victims. Mr. Maki felt he needed to help the accident victims rather than try to make them settle for the lowest possible compensation. That is when he founded the Maki Law Firm.
