After Epstein's 2019 arrest, Kuvin predicted that Epstein would be murdered prior to his death in jail. He has also claimed that Ghislaine Maxwell will die in prison. Kuvin spent over a year in court trying to make Epstein's 2007 plea deal public, an effort in which he succeeded. Kuvin has criticized Prince Andrew for his links to Epstein. Kuvin represented a car-crash victim in a lawsuit against Tiger Woods, before dropping the case in 2019. Kuvin has also represented Chloe Goins, a victim of Bill Cosby. Goins was  one of the only victims who was able to bring a direct action against Cosby and Hugh Hefner, because her claim still fell within the statute of limitations. He was also one of the only lawyers permitted to proceed with a deposition of Bill Cosby after his conviction.
