Kevin J. Mahoney has earned a reputation as one of the most aggressive, well-prepared, and fearless criminal defense lawyers practicing in Massachusetts. Not a few prosecutors describe his approach to trial work as “scorched earth.” Most importantly, Mahoney brings a sophisticated expertise to trial work unrivaled in greater Boston, Cambridge, Worcester and Dedham. His research, legal memoranda, and “work product” match, or even exceed, that of any other firm, yet he possesses the toughness, street smarts, and courtroom savvy that the walking dead of most firms never acquire.
Attorney Mahoney has won 39 of his last 41 trials* and has been lead counsel in more than 100 trials and appeals. Fellow lawyers, court personnel, police officers, physicians, MIT and Harvard professors, a former top-level Pentagon official, and a rock star, as well as the poor, the downtrodden and reviled have entrusted Mahoney with safeguarding their liberty. Because of his impressive trial record and his willingness to “tee it up,” prosecutors frequently offer his clients very favorable plea agreements. In more than a hundred cases, Mahoney has been able to persuade the judge or the prosecutor to dismiss the charges outright.
Recognized as a top criminal defense lawyer, Attorney Mahoney regularly provides on-air legal analysis for Fox News Live, Fox & Friends, CNN’s Nancy Grace, and Court TV’s Catherine Crier Live on high profile criminal cases. Court TV’s Forensic Files chronicled his tireless and successful defense of Christina Martin, dubbed “the Jell-O Murderer” by the national press. A master cross-examiner, his new book, “Relentless Criminal Cross-Examination,” is now available from James Publishing Company. It is the fastest selling book in the history of James Publishing.
