History
Shortly after earning a law degree from Seton Hall University Law School in 1984, I founded the law firm of Kuhrt & Femia, which later grew to Weiner, Conti, Kuhrt & Femia. In 2004, I branched out on my own, starting the solo practice of the Law Offices of Richard L. Kuhrt, where I put my legal experience to work for personal injury clients in Elizabeth and elsewhere in New Jersey. Not only am I active in my own community, but I am also active in the legal community as a member of the New Jersey Bar Association. I was also selected for inclusion in Super Lawyers in 2015. Super Lawyers, part of Thomson Reuters, selects attorneys based on a multi-phase process, including peer nominations, evaluations and independent research. Only about 5 percent of attorneys are selected for inclusion annually.
