About Attorney Matthew W. Peterson
I’m a lawyer in Massachusetts specializing in criminal defense, family law, and immigration matters.
If you’re reading this, you’re likely facing a legal challenge that feels overwhelming. You may feel helpless, frustrated, or outmatched- whether you’re up against the government, a large corporation, or even a neighbor. The legal system can seem complicated, intimidating, and impersonal.
I became a lawyer because I wanted to fight for people- whether it’s protecting their constitutional rights or resolving a simple dispute with a neighbor. I take each case personally, working tirelessly to find the best solution. I won’t shy away from a fight.
I understand how hard it can be to find a lawyer you trust, especially when you’re dealing with one of life’s toughest challenges- whether it’s a criminal charge or the fear of deportation. You deserve an attorney who will give your case the attention it deserves, explain things clearly, and treat you with respect. I’m committed to doing that for every client I represent.
