Our team
The best creative minds in legal advertising.
We’re strategists, media buyers, writers, directors, editors, analysts, developers and intake specialists, all under one roof in Nashville.
We began Whitehardt with a desire to do business in a different way than other attorney advertising agencies. Our pledge: be straight-up to a fault, deliver on time every time, and work continuously to make better ads, place better buys and get our clients better results.

Kevin White
CEO & Founder
The founders
Two friends, one agency.
Kevin White and Felix Eckhardt met in Los Angeles in 1989 and founded Whitehardt in Nashville in 2002. They still run it, and clients still talk to them directly.

Kevin White
Our CEO, co-founder, and fearless leader, Kevin White, oversees the entire Whitehardt operation. He’s an entrepreneur with shrewd business skills who has dedicated his career to building empires with local law firms like yours. When you work with Whitehardt, you don’t have to deal with talking to an operator or a pushy salesman, you’ll have direct access to whoever you need, including Kevin. That’s just how he likes to do business.

CFO & Founder
Felix Eckhardt
Felix is our CFO and our law firm consultant. He has been helping our clients implement internal strategies that allow them to take on the work we generate for them for 20 years. He understands law firms, how they work, and how to help them be the most profitable possible.
