I have been representing injured workers and accident victims for over 35 years.  No billboards, no TV ads, just excellent service to clients with great results.  If you hire me, you have my cell phone number and can reach me directly at any time.

I have been practicing law since 1982 and I have been at my current firm since 1989. My practice is national. I have handled litigation matters in 19 states. My main areas of practice include all types of commercial litigation including intellectual property, aviation, product liability and toxic torts. I am currently defending one of the airlines in the 9/11 litigation. I also provide risk management consulting and lecture and write frequently on legal topics, in the U.S. and abroad.

I have been a lawyer for over twenty nine years.  I started practicing criminal defense in a small firm just south of San Francisco.  I was fortunate to secure a job in Los Angeles working as a deputy district attorney for the County of Los Angeles.  Ultimately I moved back to Boston, Massachusetts where I started my own law practice.  I am exclusively a criminal defense lawyer.  My practice spans the entire Commonwealth of Massachusetts and I am frequently engaged to represent people accused of committing crimes in other states throughout the country. I have a substantial federal court criminal practice in Massachusetts. I have represented people in federal courts in many other states including New Hampshire, California, Illinois, Florida, Arizona and more.. I am accessible by phone or email 24/7. I pride myself on getting back to clients as quickly as I can. I am available to meet nights and weekends. We also Skype and Facetime when asked by clients who are unable to meet in person but who also want a more personal form of contact. I truly believe that no criminal case is too big or too difficult for my office to defend.

I am an experienced trial attorney who defends toxic tort, product liability, and environmental matters, with involvement in pro bono work. I serve as local, regional, and national counsel for clients in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, automotive, aviation, distribution, and property owners. In addition, I currently serves as National Counsel to a distribution company developing a national defense strategy, serving as trial counsel, and monitoring and litigating cases throughout the country. I have successfully tried over 75 cases to verdict in my role as a State's attorney, and bring my extensive courtroom experience to my current position working to defend multinational corporations against complex product liability and personal injury claims.
