Assets in Divorce: Extraordinary Remedies for Fraudulent Transfers and Concealment

Mr. Conlon, Partner, is the Practice Leader for DarrowEverett’s Private Client Group and Co-Chair of our Family Law Practice Group. His practice concentrates on complex family court litigation, and civil cases on behalf of children abused in the care of others. Throughout Mr. Conlon's career, he has handled challenging cases at the forefront — from computer crime investigations in the 1980s to chairing and settling Rhode Island’s clergy abuse cases on behalf of dozens of victims, all while cutting new ground in contentious family court litigation. He regularly serves as lead counsel in complex divorces with high-net worth, multiple business assets, intergenerational trusts, and testifying experts, and has worked with the leading forensic accountants and forensic psychologists in the region. Mr. Conlon has appeared on NBC Nightly News and ABC World News Tonight, and has been quoted in publications including The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and frequently The Boston Globe and Providence Journal, on issues relating to institutional child sexual abuse, teacher and coach misconduct, but also family law, spousal snooping, and child mistreatment issues.
