Because of the nature of the consultation and the preparation that goes into it, only prospective criminal defense clients are eligible for free consultations.

A paid consultation is a one-time fee of $250 and can be done via Zoom, over the phone, or in-person at either of our office locations (Boston or Salem).

Unfortunately, our office cannot help a prospective immigration client if you have already begun the process either on your own or with another attorney.

Yes! If you would rather hire a private attorney, I can take over your criminal defense case that a court appointed attorney has already started (even if you have already appeared in court).

Yes! As long as the charges are out of Massachusetts, we can help you with your criminal defense case even if you’re not currently living in the state.

No. If you are looking to appeal a denial or obtain a firearms license outside of the state of Massachusetts, you need to contact a firearms attorney in the state in which you’re trying to obtain a license.
