Attorney Seaver and his team fought for me and the truth tirelessly.
Don't hesitate to call Attorney Seaver and his team. DCF is a complicated and scary thing to take on alone. This year, I reported a supervisor at my company for sexually harassing me and the company responded in retaliation by filing a 51A against me with DCF. The claims were false, but they were inc...

Kevin - A friend in need who help, supports you in difficult time
Going thru a DCF case is tough for individual and family. While DCF follows the process/law, it is the parent/care giver/family who goes thru pain. In this troubled time you seek an advisor, a friend who can support you, guide you and be with you when needed most. Kevin is the friend you would want ...

Great guy
I try to ask a question on his website i talked to someone else and he called me in 10 minutes to answer my questions about DCF. It was almost middle of the night. He answered pretty clear I didn’t need to search anything again or ask to another lawyer. Thank you Kevin!
Thank you for taking valuable time to communicate your thoughts to me. Your kind words have brightened my day, your perspective and encouragement mean a great deal to me.

A thankful client
This guy and his staff are the best. Attorney Seaver and his team worked so hard for my family and spared us a lot of grief… We were contacted by DCF with some serious allegations and didn’t know where to turn, a family friend recommended Kevin Seaver to me. So I contacted his office and he immed...

Heartfelt Testimonial
I am a current client who recently reached out to Attorney Kevin Patrick Seaver in the fall/winter season to represent me with a dcf family matter involving my child. I believed it was best to make sure that a professional handled everything so that I was not taken advantage of by the system. My g...
Thank you for the kind words. We deeply appreciate this, "I could not be happier with my decision to have Attorney Seaver and his strong, assertive, hard-working team represent me! They made the entire process smooth, stress-free, and kept me informed every step of the way. They were extremely flexible with my work travel schedule and was happy to correspond via email/phone as in-person meetings would be hard for me to accommodate. Also, Attorney Seaver and his team of attorneys also helped accommodate my availability with dcf which have aid in my work/life balance."
"Mr. Seaver is an excellent advocate for his clients. I would not hesitate to recommend him to a client in need. He is also an asset to the Avvo Community, providing invaluable resources to those seeking help."
"I endorse Attorney Seaver as an attorney who is both dedicated to his clients and knowledgeable of his field."
"I endorse this Kevin. I know of no attorney with the specialty and experience in handling DCF matters that Kevin has."
"An excellent lawyer who treats clients with patience, care, understanding, and utmost professionalism - an even better person and I wholeheartedly recommend for future services."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've heard of his reputation and understand that he is a committed advocate."
"Kevin is a trusted colleague that I have know for almost 30 years. When necessary for complicated child and family matters I will consult with him for opinion as well as guidance. I would recommend Kevin for your family law needs."
"I endorse Attorney Seaver. I have known Atty. Seaver for decades and have been aware of his good works through observation and having been on the opposite sides of cases several times. He is knowledgeable and diligent in his practice."
