Konrad D. Kohl has practiced law in the Metropolitan Tri-County area as a trial attorney for over 50 years, and as President of one of the major law firms in the State of Michigan, Kohl, Secrest, Wardle, Lynch, Clark & Hampton.
Mr. Kohl has, in the main, restricted his practice to civil rather than criminal law, although he has been defense counsel in several major criminal trials, including the defense of the former Governor of the State of Michigan, and the defense of the City of Detroit Police Officers in the aftermath of the Detroit riots in 1967, in what has come to be known as the "Algiers Motel Incidents", the title of the book written by Pulitzer Prize winning John Hersey.
In the hundreds of cases that he has tried, Mr. Kohl has been most active in the tort and insurance law areas of practice. He has tried many product liability cases, representing both plaintiffs and defendants. He has represented many insurance companies from A to Z - Allstate to Zurich Insurance Companies. He currently is on the Board of Directors of North Pointe Insurance Company, whose home office is in Southfield, Michigan. |
