He was appointed as the Attorney General of Ireland in 1940, and served in the role until 1942, when he was appointed a High Court judge. He was for many years the Probate Judge and an acknowledged authority on succession law. He became a Judge of the Supreme Court in 1961. He retired in 1968 and died the following year. [1]
His son, also Kevin (1944–2009) followed his father's path to the Bar and the High Court; unlike his father, he was also a judge of the Circuit Court. He was an immensely popular judge whose career was cut short by his early death in 2009.
