I have been practicing for 25 years and have been recognized for being a zealous advocate for my clients. I pride myself on maintaining a high level of ethical standards, and an excellent level of service to my clients. While I respect those who do court appointed work, my practice is limited to those who are capable of retaining an attorney.

I have been practicing for over 25 years, with a primary focus on criminal law at the state and federal level.  I also handle personal injury cases.  I am a past President of the Massachusetts Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, which is the pre-eminent bar association in the state for criminal defense practitioners.

In 2011, I was appointed by the Justice of the Supreme Judicial Court to serve on the prestigous Task Force on Judicial Hiring.  The Task Force was created in response to a scandel surrounding the Probation Department hiring and promotion practices.  It is comprised of nationally recognized leaders in the legal and business community.   In 2005, I was appointed by the Supreme Judicial Court to its Standing Advisory Committee on the Rules of Criminal Procedure.  Additionally, I am on the Board of Editors of Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly, and have also served on the Cirriculum Advisory Committee for Criminal Law for Mass. Continuing Legal Education.  I am also a legal analyst for New England Cable News. 

I have previously served as an Assistant District Attorney, practicing at both the district and superior court levels.  I was the chief of the Motor Vehicle Homicide Unit, and oversaw all prosecutions involving fatalities in motor vehicles.
