About Kevin
Kevin Lumpkin built his legal foundation at Vanderbilt University Law School, earning his J.D. in 2011. He moved quickly into public service after graduation, taking a judicial clerkship with the Vermont Judiciary the same year. The clerkship gave him an early, inside view of how judges weigh facts, manage dockets and write opinions.
He joined Sheehey Furlong & Behm P.C. as a litigation associate in 2013. Litigation became the center of his day-to-day work. He handled pleadings, discovery disputes and motion practice, and stood for clients in court. In 2018 he was elevated to litigation partner at the firm. The promotion reflected years of courtroom work and responsibility for supervising litigation teams.
Those first years in the judiciary shaped how he approaches litigation. As a law clerk he learned the importance of crisp legal writing and careful record-building. He applies that perspective when preparing briefs and crafting trial strategies. Colleagues describe him as methodical in case preparation and attentive to the rules that govern courtroom procedure.
Outside the office he has taken on a number of civic roles. He served as chair of the Vermont Bar Association Young Lawyers Division and remains active in the group. In local government he was chair of the Winooski Development Review Board. He sits on the board of Vermont Works for Women and serves as its treasurer. He is president of Town Meeting Television and acts as one of its Burlington trustees. He also holds associate membership in the Vermont Business Roundtable. Those positions have kept him engaged in regional policy discussions, community media and nonprofit governance.
At Sheehey Furlong & Behm he has supervised litigation teams and worked on cases that require detailed factual development and courtroom advocacy. He balances case management with client counseling and internal firm responsibilities. His work has included motion practice and trial preparation, and he has helped guide younger lawyers through complex procedural tasks.
His career path — law clerk to associate to partner — has followed a steady arc. He continues to practice in Vermont and remains active in bar and civic organizations. He maintains an office at Sheehey Furlong & Behm P.C., where his practice focuses on litigation and related courtroom work.
