John H. Peck III

John Peck’s mission is to advocate for injured people and make those who hurt them pay what is fair. He believes in fighting for justice in a system that rewards corporations and buries individuals. Insurance companies have built a business model around collecting premiums and paying as little as possible to the people they are supposed to protect. Their only goal is to make more money, and the only way to change that behavior is to go up against it, case after case, with a lawyer who knows how the game is played. They count on claimants giving up or settling cheaply. Rebalancing that system in favor of victims, one file at a time, is what gets John out of bed every morning.

John and his team work cases with grit and relentless preparation. They build every file as if it were going to trial, because the only way to get fair value from an insurance company is to make them believe a jury will hear it. That approach has yielded tens of millions in recoveries for victims and their families throughout New England. The firm stands out through highly trained staff, over a decade of experience, and a client-focused approach built around accessibility, especially for Spanish-speaking immigrants navigating an unfamiliar legal system.

John has been an advocate for as long as he can remember. The instinct took root in his Connecticut childhood. He mediated disputes among friends, spoke up when something was wrong at school, and carried that same drive through college and law school, and now into courtrooms across Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Hampshire.

John is a lifelong Boston baseball fan, a former sous chef who still loves to cook, and an East Boston resident living with his wife, son, and dog. He reads constantly, especially mystery fiction, which scratches the same itch as trial work: piecing together what really happened from a scatter of facts that don’t yet add up. The firm is committed to lifting people up by hiring young professionals from underserved communities in Boston through the Bottom Line Organization and by supporting local immigrant aid organizations in East Boston, Revere, and Chelsea.
