Neil is the Tom Brady of Lawyers
In one night my young son went from an independent working young man with and FID card to living a MA nightmare of facing multiple gun charges. I made the mistake of hiring the first criminal defense attorney because there isn't a lot of options at 8:00 am. I later found Neil on a Goal sight, and...

Highly recommended.
I am so happy I decided to hire Neil; I know without his help, I would never have received a positive outcome on my case. Throughout the year and a half he was my attorney, he was there for me anytime I had a question regardless of his trivial it was. Besides being knowledgeable and professional, he’...
"I contacted Neil on a legal question involving MA law. He replied promptly and thoroughly with useful information. As a lawyer who also focuses on 2A issues in North Carolina, it’s great to have a resource like Neil."
"Aggressive And Experienced Criminal Defense Attorney. Client Focused, Results Driven. It is a pleasure to work with him."
"I tried a felony case against Neil in his days as a prosecutor. He was a formidable opponent. Neil has the unique perspective of highly skilled former prosecutor who has taken his talents to the defense bar. As a result he sees cases from a broader perspective and that shows in his work. He is a highly talented lawyer with a razor sharp knowledge of the law and the advocacy skills to get the best results for his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Neil Tassel is a smart, dedicated, and tenacious criminal defense attorney. He leaves no stone unturned and is committed to achieving the best results for his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Before entering private practice myself, as a prosecutor, I always though of Neil as a zealous attorney and a great lawyer to work with."
