Owner

We have been working with Kevin since we started our business over 21 years ago. Kevin has always been thorough and always very informative. I would and have recommend him.

Franchisee Representation

In 2017 I made a huge career change and went into the restaurant business, starting with becoming a franchisee of a national sandwich chain not well known in NJ. After interviewing one NJ franchisee attorney who tried to cross-sell me to a franchise broker, I happened upon Kevin's website, talked to... him, and hired him to be my business attorney. Kevin and I have only been working together for about a year, and yet I can highly recommend Kevin to represent franchisees after seeing his work on my contracts with a franchisor and in a prolonged retail lease negotiation, which we are signing this week. You will be well served by Kevin, Susan and the rest of his staff, and their pricing structure is reasonable. Oh, did I mention that my prior career was as an attorney for 20 years at a big law firm and corporations big and small?

Employment Contract Review

I retained Kevin to review all of my employee employment contracts. Kevin did a very thorough review of our employee and executive employee contracts. He found and made critical updates to the documents that will protect my company in the future. Other matters Kevin has been consulted on were met wit...h prompt and on point response.

Exceptional attorney

Kevin has worked in several capacities as my attorney over the past 7 years. He steered me through a mean spirited business litigation with calmness and professionalism that comes from his certainty of the law. He and his staff also worked through a challenging real estate closing in which bank rec...ords had to be found from many different takeovers. Again with an ease of experience and confidence. I would recommend Kevin to anyone.

A league of their own

I had and continue to have the honor of working with Kevin Kilcommons and his staff. During the process of opening a business, there can be an overwhelming feeling of stress, however Kevin made you feel comfortable and took the time to thoroughly explain everything and allowed the process to slow dow...n. His professionalism and his supportive demeanor made the experience handling contracts, leases, franchise agreements ect. as comfortable as you can ever ask for. At the same time effectively negotiate the terms for their clients benefit. I would highly recommend this firm on all levels. Thank you Kevin Kilcommins!
