Raymond R. Mello

I have been a member of the New Hampshire Bar Association since 1994.  I am a retired Police Captain with extensive experience in criminal procedure, criminal investigation, arrest, search and seizure and police operations, police procedure and other aspects of criminal investigation and law. I use my knowledge and over 20 years  of criminal justice experience to assist my clients in achieving a favorable outcome to their issues. 

I also use my legal knowledge, compassion and understanding to work with my family law, divorce and child custody clients in their most troubling times.  I have experience in divorce, child custody, child support, parental rights, both father's and mother's cases, property and business issues in divorce and all levels of family law litigation.

I live in the Southern New Hampshire area and spend my time outdoors skiing, golfing, hiking, running, bicycling and anything else I can do outdoors!

I am a member of the New hampshire and Nashua Bar Association as well as the Family Law and Criminal Law practice groups. 

I also believe in giving back to my community and I am on the Board of Directors of the Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter.
