About Kevin
Kevin Moghtanei built a steady path to the law through studies in politics and legal training. He earned a B.A. in political science from the University of California, Irvine in 2010. He went on to receive his J.D. from Southwestern Law School in 2013. The academic record shows a continuous interest in government, policy and legal institutions.
After law school he qualified to practice in several jurisdictions. He is admitted to the bars of the District of Columbia, California and Missouri. Holding licenses in multiple states allows him to take on matters that cross state lines or involve federal rules. It also means navigating different court systems and procedural regimes, which shapes how he approaches new matters.
His professional base is DCD LAW, where he practices alongside colleagues who handle a range of civil and regulatory matters. At the firm he works on assignments that require coordinating across offices and courtrooms in more than one state. That work often involves drafting pleadings, managing discovery and appearing for hearings in state and federal venues when necessary.
Colleagues describe him as methodical. He breaks complex problems into discrete steps and looks for practical solutions that clients can implement. He applies that approach whether preparing a brief, advising on jurisdictional questions or assembling a response to opposing counsel. His background in political science informs how he frames legal issues, especially when cases touch on governmental structures or regulatory frameworks.
Outside the courtroom, he continues to follow developments in the jurisdictions where he is licensed. He keeps current on rule changes and recent decisions that could affect his clients. That steady attention to detail supports the multi-jurisdictional practice he maintains at DCD LAW.
He currently practices at DCD LAW, handling matters across the District of Columbia, California and Missouri.
