Mr Orr, A Quality Attorney

I have used Kevin C Orr as an attorney repeatedly since 1999. The last time used his law firm was March 2012.
Trustworthy: I have used him repeatedly for over 13 years. I honestly feel he has never billed me for hours he legitimately could have charged. My discounted retainers seem to have stretched too far for too long. He has never tried to do anything unethical and has always requested supporting docum...

Needed an attorney to assist me getting a refund from a manufacturere that was non-responsive after several months. His letters were professional and forceful without being threatening. I received my refund right away. A great success story. I would recommend him highly. Very professional and ea...
"Kevin Orr is a formidable opponent whom I would have work with or represent me if I were to require legal representation as co-counsel or for myself in a matter. He is creative as well as very thorough and diligent to a point that exceeds many other attorneys in my experience. He stays relentlessy focused on achieving the result which is needed by his client."
"Kevin is the real deal. A true people’s lawyer. He approaches his cases with professionalism, integrity, responsiveness, genuine compassion and legal excellence. He is a class act."
"Approximately seven or eight years ago, Kevin and I were opposing counsel on a rather procedurally-convoluted personal injury action. He did yeoman's work on behalf of his client - who came to him only upon discovering that her original attorney had allowed her Complaint to be dismissed due to his failure to take any action on her behalf. Kevin resuscitated the matter for her and got it restored to the active trial calendar. We spent close to ten days on trial in Essex County and ended up with a fair, just verdict, which his client never would have realized but for his tireless efforts on her behalf. I am pleased to say that while we did not know one another prior to being adversaries in that matter, we have remained friends in the years since. Kevin is an excellent attorney and an even better person - a credit to the practice of law."
"I endorse this lawyer. Kevin fights hard but fairly and honestly for his clients. He is a distinguished member of the legal community who is dedicated to getting the best results for his clients."
"Kevin Orr is an experienced attorney whose participation and comments in Avvo show his commitment to serving clients as well as his level of experience. He is an excellent attorney that I recommend wholeheartedly."
"I endorse Kevin. He is a well-respected member of the legal community and a strong and passionate advocate for his clients"
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Orr is a highly effective advocate and a consummate legal professional."
