About Arthur
Biography
My practice focuses primarily on Criminal Defense and Personal Injury/Medical Malpractice. I am a graduate of the prestigious Defense of the Damned seminar at Gerry Spence's Trial Lawyer's College in Dubois, WY, and have represented someone whose case was featured on America's Most Wanted (I got all charges dismissed). I have practiced in Courts from Lake George to Poughkeepsie, and as far west as Utica. I have handled all types of criminal cases, from murder to jaywalking, and everything in between. I have also handled a variety of injury cases, from automobile accidents to dog bites to slip-and-fall to medical malpractice. In addition to being a partner in Frost & Kavanaugh, I am an Assistant Public Defender for Rensselaer County.
I graduated from Thomas More College in Merrimack, NH in 1991 with a B.A. in philosophy, and graduated from Gonzaga University School of Law in 1995. I was admitted to practice in all New York State Courts and the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York in 1996. I was admitted to practice before the United States District Court for the District of Vermont in 1998. I was admitted to practice before the United States Second Circuit Court of Appeals in 2010.
I am a lifelong resident of Rensselaer County, and my wife, kids and I currently reside in Poestenkill. I am an active in my church and area youth sports, coaching Little League.
