Excellent care and service for my OUI charge

Cory was very effective dealing with the DA’s office. He kept me informed, called when he said he would call and never showed a judgemental view. This was my first time in court and Cory was very patient with my questions and accompanied me the whole time I was in the courthouse. He was my persona...l guide through the entire process and made a difficult experience more tolerable. As the process unfolded he prepared me so there were no surprises. I feel immensely grateful to Cory. made

Highly recommend for OUI

Cory is very knowledgeable about MA OUI and presented my options up front very clearly in an easy to understand manner. I was initially weighing going to trial but after we couldn't really find something to support a piece of time-related evidence I decided to plea and avoid a conviction as a first t...ime offender. Very professional and responsive and also helped guide me regarding the RMV in the process to obtain a hardship license - highly recommend.

Great lawyer

I hired Cory for a vandalism charge. He was very professional had good communication and always checked with my schedule as to accommodate. Very thorough and prepared a step ahead. Highly recommended if in need of representation.

A truly great lawyer

Attorney Madera represented me for a DUI matter that involved multiple court dates. He was not only very knowledgeable and attentive, but always empathetic, courteous and professional. He also assisted me with the RMV interlock application subsequently, and I could not have navigated that without his... help. Always just a phone call away and always on top of things; I could not have asked for a better attorney.

Effective and Conscientious Counsel

Attorney Madera served ably and consistently in defending me against a false and destructive charge. He understood the processes and guided me through them while serving as my voice and defender. Although the experience was difficult both personally and for my family, Cory was a steady and confiden...t guide. I recommend him without reservation; Thank You Attorney Madera.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
