About J.
Michael grew up and attended school in Cambridge and Newton, Massachusetts. He received his Bachelors degree in Political Science from The George Washington University in Washington, D.C., where he played baseball for four years. Thereafter, Michael graduated cum laude from Suffolk University Law School, where he served as a writer and Literary Editor of the Law Review. In 1982 he joined the firm of Murphy, Lamere & Murphy in Braintree, Massachusetts, where he practiced in the areas of municipal labor law, employment law and civil litigation.
In 1985 Michael helped found Kenney, Conley, Sullivan & Smith, P.C. to pursue his interest in civil litigation and trial work on behalf of individuals rather than corporations and government institutions.
At Kenney & Conley, P.C., Michael concentrates his practice on representing injured victims of negligence and other misconduct. He is a frequent writer and lecturer for a number of organizations, including the Massachusetts Bar Association, Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education, Inc. and the Massachusetts Academy of Trial Attorneys. He has volunteered his time in educational programs to teach or update other lawyers on topics such as automobile liability insurance, uninsured and underinsured motorists' coverage, police and firefighter injuries, trial practice, and settlement of personal injury cases. Michael has served as an arbitrator in personal injury cases and insurance coverage cases, and frequently volunteers to judge students in trial practice and moot court competitions.
Michael is a member of the Board of Governors and Executive Committee for the Massachusetts Academy of Trial Attorneys. He chairs the Academy's Amicus Curiae Committee which prepares and files with the Supreme Judicial Court and the Appeals Court "friend of the court" briefs supporting victims' rights. He also serves as Editor of the MATA Journal. He is a member of the Massachusetts Bar Association for which he serves on MBA's Appellate Bench Bar Committee and is a member of MBA's Civil Litigation Section. Michael is also a member of the American Association for Justice, and is a member of AAJ's Products Liability Section, Insurance Law Section, Motor Vehicle Collision, Highway and Premises Liability Section.
Michael is also active at home in Easton, Massachusetts. He has been a volunteer coach in youth recreational and travel baseball and recreational and travel basketball. He has provided pro bono legal services to various local non-profit organizations. He is a past President of Easton Babe Ruth League and a past Chair of The Foundation for Excellence in Education in Easton (F.E.E.E.), a non-profit organization that raises funds for the benefit of the students in the Easton Public Schools.
