History of the Firm:

In 1988, four young attorneys from a top Boston law firm decided to start their own firm, based on their respect for each other’s abilities and their belief that they could deliver great client outcomes while also creating a fulfilling and collaborative workplace.Russell Conn, Jim Kavanaugh, and Tom Peisch subsequently built a wide-ranging and wildly successful trial practice, while Bob Rosenthal established himself as one of Boston’s best transactional lawyers.In 1994, George Ford joined the firm, bringing with him a thriving domestic relations practice that continues to be an integral part of the firm’s success. In 2020, the Firm's attorneys were joined by the attorneys of a highly prestigious law firm specializing in Technology and Outsourcing transactions, a group that enhances the firm's offerings for corporate clients and has become a strategic practice in the Firm.

Today, Conn Kavanaugh’s attorneys and staff share that spirit of respect and collaboration with each other and with the firm’s clients, enabling them to build relationships of deep trust and a track record of superb results. This is why, when an attorney says, “I’m with Conn Kavanaugh,” the typical response is, “That’s a great firm.”

The firm’s insightful and meticulous approach to litigation, transactional work, estate planning, and family law benefits clients in each practice area and industry served. No stone is left unturned in the process of protecting clients from past, present and future threats. Cases are staffed thoughtfully by devoting resources commensurate with the case, which delivers determined advocacy for our clients’ interests, cost-effectiveness, and excellent outcomes.
