    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Article Thirteenth of the Registrant&#8217;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that each director
      and each officer now or hereafter serving the Registrant or, at the request of the Registrant, any other corporation in which the Registrant has an interest as stockholder or creditor, and his heirs, executors and administrators, shall be indemnified
      and held harmless by the Registrant from and against all costs, expenses and liabilities, including but not limited to counsel fees and amounts of judgments and amounts paid in settlement, which may be imposed upon or incurred by him in connection
      with or resulting from any claim made against him or any action, suit or proceeding in which he may be involved, by reason of his being or having been a director or officer of the Registrant or of any such other corporation, whether or not he
      continues to be a director or officer at the time such costs, expenses and liabilities are imposed or incurred; provided, however, that no such director or officer shall be so indemnified (i)&#160;with respect to any matter as to which he shall, in any
      such action, suit or proceeding, be finally adjudged to be liable for misconduct in the performance of his duties as a director or officer, or (i)&#160;in the event of a settlement of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding unless (a)&#160;such settlement
      shall, with knowledge of the indemnification provided for thereby, be approved by the court having jurisdiction of such claim, action, suit or proceeding or (b)&#160;such settlement shall have been made upon the written opinion of independent legal
      counsel, selected by or in a manner determined by the board of directors of the Registrant, to the effect that there is no reasonable ground of liability for misconduct on the part of such director or officer and that the entire cost of such
      settlement will not substantially exceed the estimated cost of defending such claim, action, suit or proceeding to a final conclusion. The Registrant&#8217;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation also provides that the foregoing rights of indemnification
      shall be in addition to any other rights to which such director or officer may otherwise be entitled as a matter of law.</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Article Fifteenth of the Registrant&#8217;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the personal
      liability of directors to the Registrant and its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except for liability (i) for breach of the director&#8217;s duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, (ii) for acts
      or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) arising under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper
      personal benefit.</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Additionally, the Registrant has included in its by-laws provisions to indemnify its directors, officers,

      General Corporation law provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors, officers, employees and agents may be entitled under the Registrant&#8217;s by-laws, any
      agreement, the vote of stockholders or otherwise.</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">The effect of the foregoing is to require the Registrant, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify the
      officers, directors, employees and agents of the Registrant for any claim arising against such persons in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
      interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.</div>

  <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">In our capacity as counsel to Kingstone Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the &#8220;<font style="font-weight: bold;">Company</font>&#8221;), we have been asked to render this opinion in connection with a Registration Statement on Form S-8 being filed contemporaneously herewith by the Company
    with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#8220;<font style="font-weight: bold;">Registration Statement</font>&#8221;), covering the issuance of up to an
    aggregate of 500,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the &#8220;<font style="font-weight: bold;">Common Shares</font>&#8221;) under the Company&#8217;s Amended and Restated 2014
    Equity Participation Plan, as amended (the &#8220;<font style="font-weight: bold;">2014 Plan</font>&#8221;).</div>
  <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">In that connection, we have examined the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws of the Company, as
    amended to date, the Registration Statement and the 2014 Plan and are familiar with corporate proceedings of the Company relating to the adoption of the 2014 Plan.&#160; We have also examined such other instruments and documents as we deemed relevant under
    the cir-cumstances.</div>
  <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">For purposes of the opinions expressed below, we have assumed (i)&#160;the authenticity of all documents submitted
    to us as original, (ii)&#160;the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted as certified, photostatic or facsimile copies and the authenticity of the originals, (iii)&#160;the legal capacity of natural persons, (iv)&#160;the due authorization, execution
    and delivery of all documents by all parties and the validity and binding effect thereof and (v)&#160;the conformity to the proceedings of the Board of Directors of all minutes of such proceedings.&#160; We have also assumed that the corporate records furnished
    to us by the Company include all corporate proceedings taken by the Company to date.</div>
  <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Common Shares have been duly and
    validly authorized and, when issued pursuant to the terms of the 2014 Plan, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.</div>
  <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">We hereby consent to the use of our opinion as herein set forth as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.</div>
