About
Kevin R. Collins is a Massachusetts criminal defense lawyer, former prosecutor, and the owner of The Law Office of Kevin R. Collins, who represents people facing charges. His earlier work as an Assistant District Attorney gives him a clear view of how prosecutors build cases and how courts handle criminal matters. Mr. Collins uses that background to prepare defenses, review evidence, challenge weak claims, and guide clients through stressful stages of the legal process. He handles cases with steady judgment, trial skill, and close attention to each client’s needs.
Mr. Collins earned his J.D. from Santa Clara University School of Law and his B.A. from Boston College. His legal education gave him a strong base in research, writing, courtroom procedure, and case analysis. He later used that training while serving for nearly ten years as a prosecutor in Massachusetts. His education and early courtroom experience helped him understand both the legal rules and the practical steps that shape criminal cases, from investigation through hearings, motions, jury selection, and trial preparation.
Mr. Collins has worked through all phases of criminal law, including investigation, witness preparation, motion drafting, argument, jury selection, and trial practice. As a former prosecutor, he handled matters in District Court and Superior Court before moving his focus to criminal defense. He has handled thousands of cases across Massachusetts. His memberships in defense and bar organizations show his continued focus on criminal law, professional growth, and strong advocacy for people accused of crimes in state courts and local court communities.
Kevin R. Collins has helped clients by seeking dismissals, filing Motions to Dismiss and Motions to Suppress, and presenting trial defenses when cases could not be resolved earlier. His work has led to not guilty verdicts and other favorable results. Mr. Collins also helps clients understand their options, the risks ahead, and the steps needed to protect their future. He brings preparation, direct guidance, and courtroom experience to people who need a skilled criminal defense advocate during difficult cases.
