Lisa Parlagreco represents clients in civil and criminal appeals, and is frequently consulted by lawyers for guidance in appellate litigation. She has obtained success on behalf of her appellate clients in both civil and criminal appeals in state and federal courts. She also maintains a small case load of civil litigation cases, intentionally keeping her case load small so that she can provide personal attention to her clients and their cases.. Lisa often says "you never have to think outside of the box once you realize that there really is no box." That philosophy guides her both personally and professionally, and it is what guided her work as part of a team of lawyers who achieved the largest jury verdict in Massachusetts in 2019.

I received my Juris Doctor law degree from Boston University School of Law in 1976 and was admitted to the practice of law in Massachusetts in January 1977.
