Meet Kevin Lemley
About The Firm
Two decades in Arkansas courtrooms. One mission: stand between the accused and the State.
Lead Defense Attorney
A career built defending the most serious cases.
Kevin Lemley has spent his entire career on the defense side of Arkansas criminal law. He has appeared in courtrooms in every region of the state — and tried homicide cases to verdict before juries in dozens of counties.
He built this firm around a simple belief: a murder accusation is the moment when a person needs their lawyer most. That's why he keeps the firm's caseload deliberately small, and why every client receives his personal cell phone number on day one.
His approach is meticulous and aggressive — independent investigation, expert witnesses, suppression motions, and the credible threat of trial. Prosecutors across Arkansas know his name, and they know what it means when he is on the other side.

Philosophy
"I have never believed the State's case at face value. Not once. Every report, every witness statement, every piece of forensic evidence has to be tested. My clients are entitled to that — the Constitution promises it."
"When I take a murder case, I take it personally. I owe my client every hour, every motion, every argument I can find. That's the only way to do this work."
