About Kim

Kim Carnevale studied pre-law at George Washington University, earning a Bachelor of Arts in 1988. She went on to New England Law | Boston and completed her legal studies there in 1992. That combination of a Washington, D.C., undergraduate education and a Boston law degree set the stage for a career spent largely in Massachusetts courts.

Her first known role after law school was as a prosecutor in the Essex County District Attorney’s Office. In 1992 she brought cases in both Superior and District Court. Records list her handling major felonies during that period, work that gave her steady trial-room experience early in her career.

By the next decade she moved into private practice. She opened Carnevale Law Offices in 2003 and has run her own practice since. She also served as a Bar Advocate Lawyer for the Committee for Public Counsel Services and Essex County Bar Advocates, Inc., in 2006. In 2009 she handled Boston matters for SRIS Law Group, a Virginia-based firm. She later worked as an associate at Nigro, Pettepit & Lucas, LLP in 2011. Beginning in 2015 she spent time as a contract lawyer at several Boston firms, including Cooley, LLP, Steven Zlochiver & Associates, and Scott Marks, P.C.

Her credentials include formal recognition as a Bar Advocate Lawyer and a separate qualification as a bank lending agent through Straub & Lyons, P.C. Those entries reflect both courtroom roles and transactional or lending-related work in private practice. Over time her casework has spanned prosecution, defense, and matters tied to lending and commercial concerns.

Colleagues and court records present Carnevale as an attorney who has alternated between public-sector prosecution and private practice. That path has kept her active in Massachusetts courts and in the local legal community. She maintains an office under the Carnevale Law Offices name and continues to accept matters in the state. She currently practices at Carnevale Law Offices and handles criminal and civil matters in Massachusetts.
