Since 2005, I have zealosuly represented clients in all areas of criminal defense across Massachusetts, ranging from all forms of violent and non-violent felonies and misdemeanors, including sexual assaults, homicides, white collar crimes, drug offenses and operating under the influence charges.I specialize in a wide range of administrative/government agency appeals, including, matters with the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV), Department of Children and Families (DCF), Sex Offender Registry Board (SORB), Massachusetts Parole Board and the Division of Insurance. Through my appellate work with RMV matters, I have obtained numerous successful results in license suspension appeals and hardship license requests to the Board of Appeal on Liability Policies and Bonds, the Massachusetts Superior Court, and at the appellate court level.
