About Michael
Biography
As the Senior Associate Attorney at Michael Kelly Injury Lawyers, I apply my twelve years of legal experience and mediation expertise to help clients resolve their personal injury claims. I have worked thousands of cases through litigation, including serving as a mediator/concilator for eight years in the district, family and probate and housing courts. I have built trusted relationships throughout the Massachusetts Trial Courts.
In addition to my legal practice, I am passionate about serving on multiple nonprofit boards that address housing, food insecurity, and community involvement. I am the Clerk of Board at The Haven Project, the only organization north of Boston dedicated to empowering homeless or imminently homeless young adults. I am also the Clerk of Board at Lynners Against Drug Abuse Inc, a grassroots initiative to combat substance abuse and addiction. I am also the Chairperson for the City of Lynn's Citizen Advisory Board. Furthermore, I am a licensed real estate broker with experience in manufacturing process improvement.
I appreciate your time.
