Mahoney in the Media

The Temptation of Media Coverage & Protecting Your Privacy

Every law firm, no matter its size, covets media coverage. For large, well-established law firms, media coverage demonstrates their continued relevancy to their clientele. For small firms or sole-practitioners, media attention may represent their first real exposure to the nation or, at least, to their community. It can be difficult for lawyers to resist the pull of the cameras and free publicity.

High Profile Cases

At Mahoney Criminal Defense Group, we go to great lengths to protect the privacy needs of our clients. After all, our clients are paying us to pursue their best interests, not our own. Only in rare instances, where we determine that it is necessary to respond to damaging media coverage, will we appear before the cameras to defend our clients or speak with a newspaper reporter. In our experience, doing our best to contain media coverage does more for our clients than ill-advised appearances on television. We have repeatedly declined to appear on shows such as 48 Hours, Good Morning America, and the Today Show to discuss our clients’ legal woes. In the event, however, that Attorney Kevin J. Mahoney must appear before the cameras to defend a client, he is well schooled in handling the media and making the news coverage work for his client – while remaining highly cognizant of his obligations to his other clients.

Similarly, except in one instance where there are attenuating circumstances, no where on our website do we refer to our clients by name or provide sufficient information from which a client’s identity might be gleaned.

Media Attention

Attorney Mahoney does, occasionally, accept invitations to appear on major news networks such as Fox News Live, Fox & Friends, CNN, Nancy Grace, and TruTV (formerly, Court TV) to provide insights into high profile legal cases if we have no connection whatsoever to the case and he feels it is an opportunity to make a greater point about our legal system.

Testimonials

  • NS, a DUI client,about 1 month ago

    Attorney Mahoney,

    I just wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful and excellent job you did for me. You were quite impressive up there and you really did your homework catching her in a few lies from previous testimony. You are the best! Even though I never want to be in this situation again, if I know anyone I will give them your name.

    Thank Amy for me too! She is a great asset to have in your office! Very pleasant and understanding.

    Again thank you and go Celtics!

    Kevin Mahoney recently represented me in a case for destruction of property and disorderly conduct. He was extremely thorough and persistent, and despite a great deal of evidence against me, he managed to get the felony charge dropped without having to go to trial.

    I had never been in legal trouble before and had no idea how to proceed, and without his counsel, I am sure that I would have gotten convicted.

    He listened to my specific needs and always acted in my best interest. His knowledge, attention to detail, and general courtroom presence continued to amaze me throughout the entire process.

    Dear Attorney Mahoney:

    I wish to express my sincere appreciation for your efforts on my behalf. Your defense was truly outstanding. The court room skills that you demonstrated and legal knowledge were truly incomparable. I’m wishing you the very best in your future endeavors.

    In addition, I ‘m looking forward to viewing the Jello Trial on Court T.V. Let me thank you once again.

    Attorney Mahoney,

    Is very knowledgeable and very professional. He has just represented me in a case lasting a year and a half, and he made sure I got a fair trial with a fair jury. He kept me well informed about what would be happening in the court room and always had a well thought out defense for any route of attack the D.A. would be planning on.

    My trial took 2 and a half days and after the jury deliberated for approximately 23 minutes they came back with a “Not guilty” verdict. I would recommend Attorney Mahoney to anyone I know, but I sure hope I dont need him again. : ) .
