For over thirty years, throughout Massachusetts and at Federal Court, he has obtained outstandingly favorable results for his clients, which include numerous Not Guilty verdicts at Massachusetts Superior Courts, District Courts, and a string of extraordinary Not Guilty Jury Verdicts at Federal District Court, including Federal Court jury verdicts of Not Guilty on all charges. Attaining such favorable results for clients at Federal District Court is exceptional because the conviction rate at Federal Court is 85% to 95%. A thirty-year track record of such favorable results for clients has been possible through focussed, personalized attention to trial preparation and advocacy.. Regardless of whether a case involves complex litigation, such as murder cases or life felonies, or is a matter involving less serious potential consequences, Attorney Perez prides himself on working equally as attentively and tenaciously for clients in all cases; this is because any and all cases in the judicial system impact clients' livelihood, rights, and liberty interests..

As a potential client, it is important to keep in mind that regardless of Attorney Perez's -- or any other lawyer's -- achievements, successes and favorable results in past cases, the key criteria to determining whether an attorney is right for you include: trust, competence, communication, and effectiveness demonstrated in cases similar to your case. Such qualities should guide your decision regarding retaining counsel, as it is upon this foundation which a truly effective attorney-client relationship and successful outcomes are built.. Although Attorney Perez's practice consists of regularly representing clients accused of murder and felonies punishable by life in prison, as well as civil matters involving serious injuries (i.e., head trauma and brain injuries), he does make himself available to clients in less serious cases.

His clients have been well-respected members of the community (former Representatives, Harvard professors, MIT PhD candidates, police officers, West Point Graduates, Veterans, etc.); which is to say, people from all walks of life who -- due to an unfortunate twist of fate or a lapse in judgment -- find themselves in need of skilled trial counsel, and an adept, diplomatic legal representative to avoid charges or grand jury indictment.. Also, Attorney Perez represents clients Pro Bono (without charging a fee for his services), and at reduced rates, in order to regularly represent people who cannot otherwise afford his services and especially for those who are wrongly accused; i.e., Innocence Project / Innocence Program cases..
