About Kevin T.
Kevin T. Peters is an attorney whose legal training began at the University of Massachusetts, where he earned a B.A. in 1984, and continued at Suffolk University Law School, where he received his J.D. in 1987. He entered the bar shortly after completing law school and built a steady, courtroom-oriented career over the following decades.
He cut his teeth at several Boston-area firms in the mid-1980s. In 1986 he worked at Bailey & Fishman and at Robins, Zelle, Larson & Kaplan. The year after law school he joined Goodwin Procter LLP. By 1993 he was at Todd & Weld LLP. Those early positions exposed him to a range of litigation and transactional matters and set the stage for his next move.
Peters later helped establish Arrowood Peters LLP and is listed as a founding partner. At Arrowood Peters he has taken on leadership responsibilities at the firm level while continuing to try and brief matters in court. The firm-level role has required him to balance casework with oversight of daily operations and client service, a combination that characterizes much of his recent work.
He is admitted to practice in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and has appeared before the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts and the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. Peters maintains memberships in the Boston Bar Association and the Massachusetts Bar Association. He has used those connections to stay current on procedural changes and local practice developments, and he remains active in bar circles.
Throughout his career Peters has focused on representing clients in state and federal proceedings. He handles filings, oral argument and case management in the courts where he is admitted. Colleagues describe him as a steady courtroom presence who pays attention to procedural detail and prepares methodically for hearings and trials.
