Kevin Snider founded Snider & Horner in 1996. Since that time, he has overseen the firm’s continued growth and expansion from an office of two attorneys to an office of nine employees, with four attorneys.

He is also an active and experienced litigation attorney in both civil and criminal matters. In his spare time, Kevin is either training with the Fayette County Technical Rescue Squad (a regional volunteer rescue squad) as its Commander or relaxing at his pool with his son, fiancé, and their two dogs, Stella and Tula.
