Suffolk County, located in the heart of Massachusetts, holds a special place in U.S. history. Founded in 1643, it is home to Boston, the state’s vibrant capital and a center of American culture, law, and politics. This region played a significant role in the American Revolution, with pivotal events like the Boston Tea Party and the Boston Massacre shaping the fight for independence. Over the centuries, Suffolk County has grown into a diverse and dynamic area, encompassing neighborhoods such as Boston, Chelsea, Revere, and Winthrop.
Today, Suffolk County is a bustling urban hub, but it faces many of the challenges typical of large cities, including crime and complex legal issues. If you’re dealing with criminal charges in Suffolk County, you need a local Suffolk Criminal Defense Lawyer who understands the area’s legal landscape. At The Law Office of Matthew W. Peterson, we offer strong, aggressive representation for individuals facing criminal accusations in Suffolk County and beyond.
If you’re facing criminal charges in Massachusetts, you need an experienced defense attorney to protect your rights and fight for the best outcome. We handle misdemeanors, Driving Under the Influence (DUI/OUI), drug offenses, theft, burglary, sex offenders, youthful offenders, domestic violence, assault and battery, felonies, and complex cases with a strategic approach tailored to your situation.
Massachusetts has some of the strictest gun laws in the country, and issues with your License to Carry (LTC) or firearms charges can have serious consequences. We help clients navigate LTC applications, denials, revocations, and firearm-related offenses to safeguard their rights.
A Clerk Magistrate Hearing is your first opportunity to prevent criminal charges before they’re filed. We work to resolve matters at this early stage whenever possible, potentially saving you from formal court proceedings. We provide strong representation to challenge complaints, present evidence, and protect your record.
Whether you need protection through a restraining order or are defending against one, we provide experienced legal advocacy. We handle 209A abuse prevention orders and 258E harassment prevention orders to uphold your rights.
