Beyond Expectations

Kevin was a strong advocate. Without question, he exceeded my expectations, matched my international schedule seamlessly, and managed a large range of non-standard tasks and projects. Kevin quickly and efficiently developed a tiered defense plan, a program of action, and immediately began working for... my defense. I would highly recommend you reach out to this professional for consultation! I would choose Kevin again without a doubt.

Kevin Kearon - Great Attorney

Mr. Kearon is a great attorney. I found him to be extremely helpful and supportive during a very difficult time for me and my family. He educated us on the process, knew the appropriate steps to take to navigate the case and to get us the correct and fair outcome. I would recommend Mr. Kearon to any...one.

Couldn’t Recommend Him More!

When I reached out to Barket Epstein for my court case, I was assigned Mr. Kearon. I couldn’t have been luckier because he was extremely skilled at his work and informed me of exactly what I needed to beat the case. He was personal and kind, and really listened to what I had to say. I couldn’t recomm...end him more!

Criminal defense

Kevin was clear and concise about how he would represent my son. He listened and evaluated the case and told us exactly what to do in a kind and reassuring manner. We left his office knowing we had made the correct choice in coming to him. My son's charges were reduced, he would not go to jail and mo...re importantly learned a life lesson. Thank you Kevin. I would highly recommend Kevin without any reservations.

criminal defense

Kevin was not only completely informed and strategically brilliant but his kindness in representing my brother and supporting my mother and I was so caring. Knowing the personal intricacies of working with a schizophrenic client as well as knowing how the law can best represent the client are only ...a few of Kevin's skills. Kevin is a top professional in his field as well as a wonderful human being. We are so grateful that he represented our case and that he achieved the most appropriate and best resolution. Thank you Kevin.

Criminal defense lawyer | May 09

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I am pleased to recommend Kevin Kearon most highly and without reservation, for all matters having to do with criminal defense law, ranging from white collar crime to basic DWI. Over his three decades of law practice, Kevin has developed a stellar reputation among his colleagues and clients alike, as well as the judiciary, for his insightful approaches to cases, his attention to his clients, and his courtroom skills (not to mention his inimitable and engaging personality). Kevin and his Nassau County-based law firm represent individuals and corporations facing actual or potential criminal charges, over a wide range of matters, defending everything from various types of fraud to homicide to DWI to narcotics to you-name-it. If you or someone you care about is in jeopardy of criminal prosecution, you couldn’t do better than to seek counsel and legal representation from Kevin Kearon."

DUI and DWI lawyer | Feb 11

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I recommend Kevin unreservedly. I had known Kevin as a Criminal Defense and DUI/DWI attorney before for many years, and was aware of how sharp, intelligent, and astute he was, but recently, I had the chance to see Kevin "up close", in action. Kevin dealt with an impossible case, and got the best possible result that could have been dreamed of. Kevin attended to the client's matter, not just on a professional level, but on a personal basis. His actions and advice to the client, and unrelenting followups with the client and the Court, not only resulted in the client's avoiding the severe consequences which I expected would result from the client's actions, but caused the client to change his behavior and life. It was a privilege to see Kevin in action."
