Attorneys

Kyle was born in San Diego, California on October 21, 1972. He received his B.A. in History from the University of California at Berkeley in 1990 and then proceeded to the University of San Diego School of Law, earning his J.D. in 1999. He was admitted to the Bar in California in 1999.

Kyle is a member of the State Bar of California as well as the American Bar Association.

Kyle says, "When I was young, my parents told me that because I liked to argue so much, that I ought to be a lawyer. I was really stubborn, and while such a trait can frustrate parents, I believe my stubborn tenacity now serves my clients. I refuse to compromise on the truth.

Later, in high school, I published an independent newspaper in which I continually challenged the status quo. Again my persistence became the bane of school administrators, but I learned some important lessons, which enable me to face insurmountable odds while standing tall. I take seriously my obligations to serve as both an advocate to my client, and an officer for justice.

My journey into law encountered several bumps and curves, but here I am. I delight in my legal career, for now I can campaign for consumers and fight for the underdog. I think there is something uniquely American in working for the underdog. Whether the opponent is a big corporation or a faceless bureaucracy, I have no fear, because ultimately, the law is the same for everyone. I suppose that is what I love most about the law. Since the middle ages, and on into the 60's, law has been an equalizing force in society. The egalitarian nature of law keeps people honest, even without an actual lawsuit. And for those who transgress our rules of a civil society, nothing gives me greater pleasure than exposing their corrupt under-belly for all to see.

Often when the law seems to be nothing more than a mindless dance of formalities, I remind myself of all that I have learned. Most of all, I remind myself that with that one special case, I can change the world. That case may never come, but I work hard everyday, as if the case I am on can make a positive difference."
