A Franklin County Defense Attorney Who Already Knows the Courtroom

When you're facing criminal charges, the gap between a prepared attorney and an unprepared one shows up at the preliminary hearing — not after. Kevin Taccino has spent 20 years practicing criminal defense in Franklin County and the surrounding counties of Adams, Cumberland, Fulton, and Perry. He's court-appointed by Franklin County to represent clients in criminal, juvenile delinquency, and dependency matters — a designation that signals standing with local courts, not just familiarity with them.


This is a solo practice, which means when you hire Kevin, Kevin handles your case. He's been to trial. He'll go again. If a plea is in your best interest, he'll tell you honestly. If it isn't, he'll fight.

Experience When It Matters Most

At Taccino Law Office, we're committed to providing quality legal representation in Franklin County, PA and surrounding areas. We specialize in several areas of practice including criminal defense, bankruptcy, family law, and civil law.

Criminal Defense

When your future may depend on courtroom performance, having one of our board-certified trial attorneys means your defense is built with precision and depth from day one.

Family Law

With over 15 years of experience, we ensure that all matters are handled with the seriousness & compassion that they deserve.

Civil Law

We handle civil litigation matters in Pennsylvania courts, both Magisterial District Justice Courts and Courts of Common Pleas.

Legal Help Across the Cases That Often Overlap

Criminal charges, juvenile proceedings, and family matters don't always arrive separately. When they intersect — a parent facing both criminal charges and a CYS investigation, or a juvenile delinquency matter with custody implications — having one attorney across all three practice areas is a meaningful advantage.

What It Costs — and How the Consultation Works

A paid consultation is the starting point. That fee doesn't disappear if you decide to move forward — it's credited toward your retainer. There are no stacked fees, no surprise add-ons. One clear rate, applied honestly from the first conversation.


If you're wondering whether you can afford real legal representation, the consultation is the right place to start. You'll leave with a clear picture of your situation, your options, and what working together would actually cost.
