Randall Delivers!

From the moment he picks up the phone it's all buisness. Randall is straight forward and right to the point. After asking a few key questions about your case Randall gives you a quick idea of what you can expect. A few email exchanges and Randall takes care of the rest. I called Randall on two occasi...ons both for speeding tickets 20 over the speed limit. On both occasions I paid a fine and they were reduced to parking tickets. I'm sure this was child's play for Randall. He also gave me a discount for being a repeat customer. Great work, very professional and if I need quality representation again I know who to call.

The most effective Attorney

I hired Randal Kehoe for my Chapter 7 bankruptcy his was detailed and knowledgeable about the process. During this process Randal had to take on The Social Security Administration. With expertise Randal was able to remove all my Debt and Judgements including Social Security Administration. I strongly... recommend Randal Kehoe to anyone look for an attorney. Randal Kehoe is a well seasoned Attorney i find him to the best attorney in the capital region

Lead Foot

I was clocked doing 80 in a 65. Typical speed trap by troopers in Malta, NY while driving on the Northway. I received my ticket and had all intentions of pleading guilty and paying my fine. Then I thought about the points against my license, the increase in insurance premium and this on top of the fi...ne and surcharges for the ticket itself! So I went online and found multiple reviews for Mr. Kehoe and I thought this might be my guy to make my life a little better! A week before the ticket was due to be returned to the court with my plea I called Mr. Kehoe. The man wasn't much for conversation and wanted to get right to business. Obviously an indication that his time was valuable and if I wasn't serious about retaining him then let's speed the chit chat along! He asked a few questions about the ticket and said email me a copy along with your driving record for 3 years and pay my retainer fee and don't worry I will take care of it! 45 days later Mr. Kehoe sends me an email stating the case was closed and that speeding ticket??? well it was reduced to parking on the pavement and I received a $125 fine. Between his retainer and the fine I still came out well below the cost of what the original ticket would have been while also avoiding the points accessed to my license and an increase in my insurance costs. To anyone in a similar situation I would recommend this attorney to handle your traffic case hands down. Again I sat back and Mr. Kehoe took care of everything and I never even appeared in court! Many thanks to you Mr. Kehoe and to your outstanding Paralegal-Legal Administrator Toddy Lisky as well. You both did a fine job and although I paid for your representation I am still grateful for your assistance in resolving my case with such a favorable outcome and in an expeditious manner! Casey J.

Good job

Helped my son with a speeding ticket. Got it reduced. Did a great job

Posted by Carl | April 18, 2017 | Hired Attorney

Couldn't be more pleased

Atty. Randall Kehoe succeeded in reducing my NY State traffic ticket for move over law violation, to a violation for unattended motor vehicle (essentially a parking ticket). Although the fine for the parking ticket was a bit pricey, the parking ticket fine in combination with the legal fees were sti...ll far less than what the move over law fine (with insurance surcharge and loss of safe driver points) would have been in the long run. In addition, this outcome left my driving record unblemished! Kudos for Atty. Kehoe.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
