Kevin Heaney

Mission Statement

I am the founder of Law Offices of Kevin Heaney. My firm specializes in criminal defense cases, personal injury matters and restraining order hearings. As a trial lawyer with over 25 years of experience, I have successfully tried a wide range of cases.

I represent individuals who have been charged with a variety of criminal offenses including assault and battery, sexual assault, domestic violence, burglary, robbery, theft, criminal threats, drug charges, sex crimes, stalking, juvenile crimes, and Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) issues: driving under the influence (DUI) or drunk driving (DWI), license suspensions, hit and run, traffic violations, vehicular manslaughter and more.

I handle post judgment relief cases such as petitions for factual innocence, in certain circumstances clearing up arrest records or cases that have been dismissed after filing, in addition to reducing felonies to misdemeanors, as well as expungements – modifying your record for job purposes.

I also represent individuals who have been injured by the negligence of others. My experience as a civil litigator for personal injury matters includes cases such as car accidents, rear-end collisions, bicycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, recreational accidents, slip and fall accident, dog bites, premises liability issues and more.

Furthermore, I have been petitioning for and defending against civil and domestic restraining orders and protective orders for over twenty five years. I have been involved in over a hundred restraining order hearings.

I have tried these cases throughout California and have consistently provided results-oriented, reliable, and cost-effective representation for my clients.

PERSONAL MESSAGE
As a boy growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area, I can remember my father telling me about my grandfathers who worked all their lives in the coal mines and railroad yard. I am conscious and aware and grateful for the hard work of those who preceded me which now affords me the privilege of practicing law. I understand that your case will have a profound impact on your life. I take that responsibility the same way I would want a lawyer to take my case. We realize it is your case, involving your life, and ultimately your decision as to how and when to resolve or try your case and we will always respect your decision.

Testimonials

Here’s what clients had to say about Kevin Heaney’s work

Kevin did an amazing job. He turned a nightmare into a really manageable situation. Without going into detail, I was facing some complications due to my record that would have made for a lengthy and grand problem. He was able to get it mitigated and really came away amazing, compared to where we started. Worth every penny and more. I feel that the work he did was more than commensurate for what he charged me. I will use him in the future and I would recommend him to family and friends.

G.K.

Amazing honest and efficient lawyer! Kevin knows the ins and outs of the criminal system. He is the definitely the guy to have on your side. I won’t go into the details of the case, but my brother got involve in a domestic violent situation and we needed a good Marin lawyer that wouldn’t charge an arm and a leg to take his case. I was referred to Kevin by a friend of mine. I noticed on the initial phone consultation that he really wanted to help. We were able to work out a very reasonable price for the handling of the case, so we hired him. Kevin worked hard since day one, and he got my bro a very good deal with the DA. Our family is thankful to have hired him.

I contacted Kevin when I needed legal representation in a case which I felt required a high level of client service and representation. He was always right there for me when I needed him, whether it was showing up early for hearings, to the individualized attention I received at the courthouse, and having private meetings in his office anytime, as often as needed without any rescheduling. Kevin approached my case with care and made me feel comfortable as he took the time to thoroughly review my case history, explain my options to me, and was readily available and responsive when I had questions or just needed to talk to him. He treated my case with genuine care and attention it deserved and my case results certainly reflected his strong personal and professional attributes. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Kevin again if the need arises.

I received the best possible outcome by giving my case to Kevin Heaney. He fought for me the entire way until he got my case dismissed! I have never come across a lawyer that cares so much about his clients or what happens to them. His rates are very affordable and he is open to negotiate the numbers. It is clear that he wants to help. Kevin knows his stuff and he is on top of it. He is also very personable, kept me in the loop of things throughout the process and always returned my calls and emails. I am grateful and lucky to have found Kevin. He is a true professional and knows how to get it done.

I wanted to thank you for the excellent job you did on getting Luis Correa’s case dismissed. You were very efficient and with minimal stress to Mr Correa. He had full confidence in you and you made it very easy for him to put this case in your hands. The fact that he only had to meet with you a few times and only able to provide you with minimal information he had on his case was a blessing that you were able to get the case dismissed! You know your stuff! Thank you once again and Mr Correa is very pleased with the outcome and can get on with his life without this case over him.

M.S.
