About Kevin Frank
Kevin Frank Richards took a measured path into the law. He earned a B.S. in Political Science from the State University of New York at Albany in 2007 and later returned to the capital region to complete a J.D. at Albany Law School in 2014. Those academic choices set the table for work that sits at the intersection of legal advocacy and criminal justice practice.
Early in his career Richards built credentialed expertise in field investigation and forensic procedures. He holds multiple certifications from the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services, including Standardized Field Sobriety Testing, Breath Analysis Operator, Major Crimes Investigation, Field Training Officer, and General Topics Instructor. Those qualifications point to hands-on training in investigative techniques and courtroom-admissible testing procedures.
In 2018 he served as Of Counsel at Nave Team, a role that added a law practice dimension to his background. The position allowed him to combine legal research and case preparation with practical investigative methods. Colleagues recall a practitioner who bridges technical training and case strategy rather than relying on theory alone.
Richards has remained tied to the practical side of criminal law. His certifications in standardized field sobriety and breath analysis reflect work that often intersects with DUI and related prosecutions. Training as a field training officer and major crimes investigator suggests familiarity with the mechanics of police procedure and evidence collection. He has presented or instructed on some of these topics under the auspices of the Division of Criminal Justice Services, bringing those procedural subjects into a classroom setting for other practitioners and officers.
He now practices under the name Kevin F. Richards Lawyer at Law PLLC. The firm title signals a solo or small-firm operation centered on personal client representation. Richards’ background gives him particular fluency in cases where technical evidence and investigative detail matter. He approaches files with attention to the evidentiary work behind charges as well as the legal arguments that follow.
Clients and peers describe a lawyer who prioritizes practical results and clear explanation. He blends courtroom preparation with an understanding of investigative technique. Richards maintains his law license in New York and continues to work on matters that involve criminal procedure, DUI-related testing, and the investigative issues that attend major criminal cases.
He currently focuses his practice on criminal matters, including cases involving impaired driving and serious criminal investigations.
