Maddin Hauser is pleased to announce that three exceptional attorneys have been elevated to the shareholder level. 

Krista Cotter Ranta, David T. Lin, and Kevin C. Majewski joined the firm’s Financial Services and Real Property Litigation group in early 2025 and made an immediate positive impact. David is also a member of the Bankruptcy, Restructuring, and Debtor-Creditor Rights group.

Krista earned her law degree from Michigan State University College of Law.

An accomplished creditors’ rights and bankruptcy attorney, David has a tremendous record of achieving favorable outcomes for lenders facing distressed loans or borrower insolvencies. He deftly guides lenders and other creditors through all stages of the bankruptcy process after a debtor files for bankruptcy relief. He is a seasoned practitioner who represents his clients’ diverse interests at the pre- and post-judgment stages of commercial litigation. David earned his law degree from Loyola University Chicago School of Law.

A formidable litigator, Kevin concentrates his practice on disputes involving real property, construction, mortgages, financial services, and other business matters.
