Stay Away

I hired Attorney Calnan to represent me in a Child Support Modification case. He took my money, incorrectly filed the paperwork and then ignored my phone calls for months. I finally had to file a complaint with the Mass Bar Assoc. and i never resolved my issue. Paid thousands in fees to the other par...ty waiting for his help. Don't hire him

Review for Kevin J. Calnan

Kevin was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful to me and my family in creating our wills. He advised us appropriately and was able to break down the process and legal terminology so we could understand and make good decisions for ourselves and beneficiaries. We were so lucky to have had the professi...onalism of Kevin to work with us during the process. I highly recommend him. Anne Marie

Excellent attorney

Kevin fought for me endlessly and helped me get custody of my 2 children. I am forever grateful and highly recommend him.

Not my cup of tea

As a parent fighting to gain custody and visitation with my child Kevin was not on my side of the table during legal proceedings and negations. The case went on for a couple of years he seemed to be dragging his feel in trying to find and resolve the family law matters. It's a shame that dragging out... a due process is hard to come by running an hourly tally for every email, phonecall and court hearing and not provide any positive results for the client and family.

I’m sorry for the bad experience that you had and the experience with my firm. The time line of this matter is long and outside the courts’ self-imposed time standards. The fact pattern seems very long for a custody/parenting case and I don’t have your docket number. I strive for customer satisfaction in every case. Please contact me directly to discuss your specific concerns perhaps I can still help. Thank you. Kevin Calnan
