Katherine L. Kenney

A formidable advocate in a complex malpractice case

I engaged Katherine Kenney of Peabody & Arnold after my professional licensing board initiated an investigation following a client complaint. The situation was incredibly stressful, threatening my career of over two decades. From our first meeting at her Boston office, her deep expertise in professional malpractice defense was immediately apparent. She leveraged her 28 years of experience, including her recent recognition as Lawyer of the Year, to develop a meticulous, evidence-based strategy. Her background from Suffolk University Law School and her focus on defending professionals gave her a commanding understanding of both the legal standards and the procedural nuances before the board. Katherine was unflappable, methodically dismantling the allegations and guiding me through every step with clear, direct counsel. Her advocacy resulted in the complete dismissal of the complaint. The only minor critique would be that during the initial fact-gathering phase, there were a couple of instances where follow-up correspondence took a bit longer than expected, though this never impacted our strategic timeline. Overall, her skillful navigation of a high-stakes situation was invaluable. I would confidently recommend her to any professional facing similar challenges.
