About Kevin

Practice Areas

Construction and Development 50%

My construction practice is focused on transactional matters. That is, I endeavor to keep my clients out of court by savvy drafting and negotiation of the contract and judicious contract administration. While some projects inevitably end up in litigation, a well-developed and well-administered contract can make a big difference in whether one goes to courts, and what the outcome is when that happens.

37 years

50%

Insurance 25%

Assisting clients in developing risk management programs and confirming the conformity of the insurance policies to the program, administering claims programs and suing insurance companies to enforce the policies.

27 years

25%

Real Estate 25%

Real estate development is my core practice area, and some generic real estate work (conveyancing and mortgaging) is inevitable. I have especially long and strong experience helping lenders and borrowers navigate the treacherous shoals of the New York Lien Law.

Review

We wire transferred a retainer fee to him as requested for him to represent us in four court cases. We are out of state, Oregon and needed a local New York attorney. Those cases came and went. He did not represent us and has failed to return any communication from us, our Oregon attorney, or the N...ew York Bar Disciplinary committee. We have just been informed by the dispensary committee his license has been suspended. DO NOT use him!!!

Not trustworthy!

I hired Mr. Connolly, signed a retainer he sent me. I paid the fee he asked for. He has done nothing and will not return my phone calls or emails.

Hired but he never returned my calls after payment

I called Kevin and inquired about a judgement against me in New York . He was knowledgeable and agreed to represent me . I paid a portion of the amount agreed and shortly after nothing at all . He wont return my calls pr emails

Where is he?

I hired Mr. Connolly a couple years ago, paid a retainer through Chase bank had very few conversations with him and then nothing at all. The case went to court in NYC, judgement filed against me and I have left several phone messages, emails and still nothing. Very unhappy with no resolution.

Not Pleased

I signed and returned retainer to Mr. Connolly. Paid fee through bank wire transfer as instructed with the information he gave. No communication in writing or via phone.
