About Kevin
Biography
Following one year as a Rhode Island Superior Court Law Clerk, I spent six years as a state criminal prosecutor in the Rhode Island Department of Attorney General prosecuting dozens of capital cases and high profile homicides. I later joined the Newport, Rhode Island law firm of Houlihan, Managhan & Kyle, Ltd. After working for HM&K for several years, In 2011 I opened my own practice - Kevin Hagan Attorney At Law - located at 105 Memorial Blvd West, Newport, RI 02840.
Since 2002, I have successfully handled all kinds of criminal cases in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. and I have achieved acquittals at trial and favorable resolutions for my clients at both the trial and investigative stages of my cases. I have defended clients charged with all forms of capital offenses, major felonies and misdemeanors. As a prosecutor, I prosecuted hundreds of major crimes including child abuse, homicide, robbery and white collar crime.
During my years as a Rhode Island state prosecutor, I worked at all levels of the criminal justice system. I established lasting relationships with fellow members of the bar and law enforcement colleagues alike.
As a private practitioner, I now litigate DUI cases, Criminal Defense cases, Family Law cases, Personal Injury cases, Domestic Violence cases, Zoning cases, Traffic cases, and Civil cases of every kind.
I grew up in Worcester, Massachusetts. my father was a college president and my late grandfather was the administrator of probation and parole in Rhode Island. They always put a high priority on helping people, and I try to follow in that tradition as a lawyer. I am member of the Rhode Island and Massachusetts State bars. I also am a member of the bar for the Rhode Island Federal District Court.

Well informed, communicates clearly
Kevin was sensitive and non-judgmental from the start. Throughout the legal process he was clear (and also accurate) about what to expect and the purpose of each step. He was accessible at all times, and his associate, Craig, was equally effective in all these areas. Kevin and Craig also know the rig...
