Parent

Mr. Delsignore represented my son on an OUI case out of the Boston Municipal Court. His in depth experience and knowledge regarding OUI and DWI defense law was evident in his representation of our case and with our initial consultation with him. He was very forthcoming explaining the law and guiding ...us through this very stressful process. Mr. Delsignore's professionalism defending this case helped render a "Not Guilty" verdict defending the evidence.

Thank you for your review; I know it was very stressful as a parent to have to sit through a jury trial involving your son. Your son is a very giving person and has a great future ahead of him. I wish both of you the best of luck and am glad I could put this behind him.

2nd offence OUI/DUI

In May of 2016, I was charged with OUI/DUI. I was charged by a Northborough Policeman of a second offence. I Failed a sobriety test as well as breathalyzer test. I was advised to hire a lawyer by the judge because it's a serious charge. I googled and found Michael based on the good review ratings, a...nd also the convient location, being close to my court location in Westborough, MA. Michael continualy postponed the trial date for various reasons, and he had many clients at the court besides me to take care of. I did not feel good that I was not getting enough attention for my case. Well, it's been almost a year later now in Apr of 2017. It's finally the trial day in front of the judge. I thought I had certainly wasted my time and money, hiring him to represent me, but not on this date! He had no other clients but me, to focus and concentrate on my case. He gave such a powerful performance. The statements and questions to the accusing officer and the judge, there was no question, I was going to win. And guess what? I've got a judgement of "NOT GUILTY OF OUI" WOW~~~ I hugged him and thanked him. No wonder he has high ratings and reviews. You won't be disappointed!

Thanks for your review. I am glad I could get your breath test excluded from evidence and a not guilty verdict on the trial date. One of the reasons your case took awhile and breath test cases often take awhile is because there are more legal issues and we have to sometimes be strategic in terms of what judge hears the motion. The main reason it took awhile was so we could litigate every issue involving the breath test in your case. You had 2 good issues to challenge the breath test and that is why the judge excluded the test from evidence after a motion hearing. Since my clients were apart of the recent statewide challenge to the breath test, many of the cases would get the same dates for status. It was a pleasure representing you and I wish you the best of luck in your future.

Not Guilty - OUI

In 2016, I was pulled over, arrested, and charged with OUI in Massachusetts. After my arraignment, I researched several attorneys before finding Michael DelSignore. Despite contacting him in the evening, he responded right away and reviewed my police report. We then set up a consultation appointment ...to meet a few days later. Michael answered all my questions in detail and was able to clearly explain the pros & cons of what proved to be a very complicated process. At this time I hired Michael as my attorney to bring my case to trial. Over the next several months I worked with Attorney Julie Gaudreau. She attended my RMV appeal and early court appearances. She answered any questions I had about the process and was very accessible. A motion date was scheduled to suppress evidence and statements that were in the police report. Michael appeared at this court appearance and successfully suppressed evidence and obtained testimonies from the arresting officers under oath. Close to a year after my arrest the trial date was scheduled. On the date of the trial, Michael recommended that I waive my right to a jury and go with a bench trial. During the trial, he cross examined the officers and played a booking video for the judge. The officer’s statements and video suggested conflict with the original police report, noting the performance of someone not exhibiting the symptoms of alcohol intoxication. The judge ruled in our favor and stated the prosecution did not have enough evidence to prove the OUI charge. While the entire process can be highly stressful, Michael was there for me when it mattered most and helped get my life back on track. If you are currently seeking OUI representation, I cannot recommend the services of Julie and Michael highly enough.

Not Guilty 1/30/17

Going through the process of an OUI can be extremely stressful. I was stopped at an OUI checkpoint in Everett and the next week consisted of researching all of the OUI defense lawyers and spending hours trying to find the right one. When I originally spoke with mike he did not try to oversell, unlike... many others I spoke with. Throughout the months leading to my trial he guided and advised me the entire way and was there whenever I had a question. The day of my trial, mike used his knowledge and experience in the district I was arrested in to decide a jury vs. a bench trial, which we decided on a jury with his experience with the judge that was on bench that day. From the beginning of trial to his closing argument, mike owned the courtroom. Before the trial began, mike argued to suppress two key parts of the police report which the judge sided with mike and not the DA and suppressed both. Through mike's cross examination with the arresting officers, mike skillfully threw doubt throughout the entire commonwealth's case. Through his cross examination he even made one of the officers admit to the jury that I did well on my field sobriety! From start to finish, I truly never felt unconfident nor that I would lose with mike once I saw him go to work at trial. The jury came back with a Not Guilty verdict in under about 10 minutes. If you have just got an OUI and are going through the process of endless hours of researching the right defense attorney that will advise you and get you the best results possible, call mike.

Not Guilty on DUI Charge

I selected Michael out of 2 dozen attorneys that I researched meticulously online. When I contacted Michael, he responded immediately and I met with him shortly thereafter. From the moment I met him in person, he was polite, professional and accommodating. From there on he was all over my case. H...is one on one advice was instrumental in the final outcome. He spent an extended amount of time with me, reviewing my case, point by point. I was more than impressed to watch him display his exceptional talent as of lawyer before the judge. It was the best Christmas gift I received this year. Thank you Michael.
