Effective attorney

Attorney Kieran Costello was a on top of my divorce case right from the start. He was diligent in pursuing settlement, but very able in front of judge, which was necessary at several points during the case. I appreciate the time and effort he and his team put into my matter, and was very happy with... the results. His office was prompt with billing, so that I was able to understand the progress of my case and could evaluate my options accordingly. Highly recommend.

Responsive and Thorough

I worked with Kieran and his staff for nearly two years on a very contentious and complicated matrimonial matter. The case ended up going to trial where Kieran argued zealously on my behalf. I was impressed by the way in which he and his staff were responsive to my inquiries. I was also pleased by... the thorough manner I was prepared and he was prepared for the trial. The outcome after the trial was very favorable. I interviewed several other attorneys and was happy that I chose Kieran to ultimately represent me.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2016.

Reprimand issued in CT, 2016

updated on 03/06/2017

A reprimand is an order from the Statewide Grievance Committee after it has found that an attorney has engaged in ethical misconduct. If an attorney receives more than 3 reprimands in 5 years, a presentment must be filed against the attorney so the Superior Court can decide if more serious discipline should be ordered.
