Kieran Altieri began his career as a summer law clerk in 2003.  He focuses his practice in the areas of commercial litigation, insurance coverage, and appeals. He deals with all aspects of insurance coverage disputes, from initial claim handling to appeals, particularly with respect to commercial general liability policies and environmental coverage issues.  Mr. Altieri has also handled an array of commercial contract disputes, from steel trade battles to board and nail cases.  

He has also spent a significant portion of his career working on land use matters - particularly variance and special exception applications, governmental taking and eminent domain disputes.  Mr. Altieri has worked on a number of cases involving lawyers’ professional responsibility matters at the state and federal trial courts as well as the First Circuit Court of Appeals.  

Mr. Altieri is also experienced in guiding individuals and their businesses through the legal and other aspects of crises posed by substance use disorders and mental health challenges.

He has worked on both sides of many practice areas — e.g., for both landowner applicants and municipalities, as well as policyholders and insurers — giving him a unique “high altitude” perspective of cases.  Mr. Altieri takes pride in honing in carefully on the details of a dispute while never losing sight of the big picture areas that will make a difference to his clients, judges and juries.

Mr. Altieri lives in Londonderry, New Hampshire with his wife, Sara, and three children. He is a parishioner of Saint Mark the Evangelist Parish, and the Assistant Coach of the Nashua North-Souhegan Varsity Hockey Team.
