Practice focusing on Enforcement of Judgments (MA, sister-state and international), commercial collections and business litigation.  Professional Fee Disputes.  Contract Disputes and Negotiations.  Defense of Claims including credit card debts and other debt related claims.  Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices.   Special counsel in complex collection matters.. With over 25 years experience, I seek to achieve my client's aims as efficiently and effectively as possible.  I litigate in the Massachusetts State Courts and in Federal Court.  At the outset, I assess the collectibilty of all claims and proceed accordingly.  In the proper case, i will apply for prejudgment remedies, such as bank account attachments, real estate attachments, actions to reach and apply (e.g. a debt owed to the debtor) and special attachments (e.g where property is held in trust).. I believe it is important to treat each client with respect and I pay careful attention to the progress of all of my cases.  I am accessible and responsive.  I strive to uphold a high level of honesty and integrity in all of my dealings with clients and opposing counsel.. When necessary, I collaborate with lawyers in other jurisdictions and with lawyers who have other areas of expertise, such as real estate, chap 11 (reorganization) bankruptcy,  I also manage collection portfolios for commercial clients.

My practice concentrates in real estate, corporate, trust and estate, and personal injury law.  I possess extensive experience in both commercial and residential real estate transactions and condominium conversions, as well as corporate law, business formation, business mergers and acquisitions, estate planning, and trust and estate matters.  In addition, I am counsel to several privately held entities in various industries (such as retail stores, restaurants, transportation companies, personal service companies and medical care providers). I am an elected Town Meeting Member in Natick, Massachusetts, and am a member of the Board of the Natick Affordable Housing Trust.  I previously served for two years as a member of the Brookline, Massachusetts Economic Development Board, a twelve-member board responsible for advising the Town Selectmen regarding business, real estate and economic development matters.  I am a member of Bet Tzedek, a program that provides pro bono legal assistance through Jewish Family and Children's Service.  I am a certified title agent of Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company, and a member of both the Massachusetts Bar Association and the Real Estate Bar Association of Massachusetts.

My main area of practice includes all aspects of Family Law, including divorce, custody, modifications and litigation.   I treat each case as if it were my own and focus on getting the best possible results for my clients.  My background includes  graduation from Framingham State University, cum laude, with a bachelor of arts degree.  I next attended the University of Pennsylvania for graduate studies.  I then attended New England School of Law, where I received my Juris Doctorate, cum laude,  in 1989.  I was awarded New England scholar status. Recognizing the need to give each case individual attention I co-founded my law firm Karpenski & Schmelkin, LLC, where we give every case our individual attention and priority.

Mr. Fields believes that while the law is always critical in a family law case, his experience has taught him that most of the time it is the psychodynamics of the parties and counsel that determine whether and how a case settles.  That is why process is so critical to resolution — and why choosing the right “container” is vital.  Put another way: “getting there” is important but the way you get there is just as important.  Mediation may work for some clients.  Collaborative Law may work for others.  Sometimes, a more traditional representation or litigation is appropriate.  Often, there may be a creative combination of processes that will suit a certain dynamic.
