Defending the Accused and Protecting Marital Interests Since 1992.
Kevin A. Fuller has spent more than thirty years making the State meet its burden, in hundreds of jury trials.
Serious charges. Serious stakes.
Criminal Defense
Battery, theft, and violent felonies. From second-degree misdemeanors to first-degree felonies, every client receives the same high-caliber defense, built on the weaknesses in the State's case.
DUI and Drug Charges
First-time and repeat DUI across Hillsborough and Pinellas, and drug charges from possession through trafficking. The defense starts at the stop, not at the courtroom door.
Domestic Violence
Battery charges and injunction hearings move fast and the consequences last. Both sides of an injunction deserve a lawyer who prepares for the hearing like a trial.
Family Law and Divorce
Divorce, custody and paternity disputes, alimony, and equitable distribution of marital assets, protected with the same trial-first preparation.
Family Mediation
A private, confidential alternative to fighting it out in court. As a Certified Family Law Mediator, Kevin helps both sides reach an agreement they control instead of a ruling they don't.
Sealing and Expungement
An old arrest can follow you into every job application. Where Florida law allows, the firm clears the record and closes that chapter for good.
Prepare every case for trial from the very beginning.
That preparation is what wins a positive resolution, often long before a jury is ever seated. It is the same standard for a second-degree misdemeanor, a first-degree felony, and every family law matter this firm takes on.

How I build
your defense.
One approach, applied to every criminal charge and every family law matter this firm handles.
- 01
Investigate
Pull the State's case apart piece by piece. Thirty years of trial work means knowing exactly where evidence tends to break, and how to expose it.
- 02
Prepare for trial
Build every file as if a jury will decide it. That readiness is leverage, and it is what moves prosecutors toward a resolution in your favor.
- 03
Resolve
Push for dismissal, reduction, or acquittal. When trial is the right call, you have a lawyer who has been in front of a jury hundreds of times.
Thirty years. One standard.
I started The Fuller Firm more than thirty years ago with one goal, to build a top-notch criminal defense practice. I have defended clients throughout Florida, with hundreds of those cases going to trial, and every client receives the same high-caliber defense.
That work grew into family law after one defense case turned into dozens of referrals, from custody disputes and paternity actions to divorces. Whether I am defending a criminal charge or protecting your interests in a divorce, the preparation is the same.

Criminal and family trial work
He found the hole in the State's case that everyone else had missed. My DUI was dismissed before we ever reached trial.
Kevin treated my custody fight like it was his own family. Calm, prepared, and relentless in the courtroom.
Thirty years of experience shows. He knew the prosecutors, knew the judge, and knew exactly how to fight my charge.
