About John
Biography
My wife and I launched our law firm in the summer of 2002 because we believed that we could provide superior, cost effective legal services to our clients, yet enjoy life outside of the office. Our success is attributable is playing to our strengths and recognizing our limitations. If a potential client is not a good fit based upon our approach, philosophy and resources, we help the individual or the company find a better fit. By being selective in our cases and our clients, we have generally done a great job improving our clients' situation and creating some long term relationships.
When I am not at the office, I can be found coaching various sport teams in my home town of North Reading, and on rare, special occasions on the golf course or my jet ski.
