Lorenzo Perez

Firm: Law Office of Lorenzo Perez
One Boston Place, 201 Washington Street Suite 2600 , Boston , Massachusetts 02108
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
Lorenzo Perez is a highly experienced trial lawyer who focusses his practice on complex criminal and civil trials. He compliments his practice with appellate advocacy. 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.. Favorable outcomes: lifetime financial and medical support settlements in civil cases: civil judgments ranging from $200,000 to $980,000 (with life-long injury settlements surpassing multiple millions of dollars in verdicts); Not Guilty jury verdicts in a multitude of courts at all levels of the court system; "Motions Allowed" decisions in motions to suppress evidence and motions to dismiss charges; and, the avoidance of Grand Jury indictments for business owners and for falsely accused criminal defendants. Additionally, on several occasions, intensive investigation and proper presentation of the facts investigated have led to the dismissal of criminal charges against wrongly accused clients.. Caseload Management to Optimize Effectiveness: Attorney Perez maintains a manageable caseload in order to optimally represent his clients; thus, he must be selective about taking on new clients. 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. He prides himself on advocating tenaciously for clients with simple matters before the court, just as attentively as he does for clients in more complex 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.. Contributing to the Improvement of Law Practice: Dedicating himself to the improvement of trial law practice throughout Massachusetts, Attorney Perez regularly teaches legal skills seminars to attorneys on the Murder Panel through the Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education for the Committee for Public Counsel Services, and Middlesex Defense Attorneys. Courses have included Murder Panel Trial Skills Seminars, and a wide array of other topics. He also has contributed to the integrity of the legal community by serving as a Hearing Officer at the Board of Bar Overseers, and is an active supporter of the Innocence Project, having served as the Assistant Director of the New England Innocence Project, and the Director of the Cambridge Innocence Project.. Education & Bar Admissions: Attorney Perez is a member of the Massachusetts Bar (1992), the Federal Bar (1st Circuit) (2004), and the U.S. Court of Appeals (2004).. He is a graduate of Boston University Law School (1992) and Bentley University (1988); Post-Doctoral Education includes: Harvard University Graduate School of Education, and New York University Gallatin School of Individualized Study.. Intensive National Trial Skills Academies, Alumnus of the Following:. The National Criminal Defense College,The National Institute of Trial Advocates, andThe Institute of Criminal Defense Advocacy.. Professional Associations include:. National Association of Criminal Defense LawyersMassachusetts Association of Criminal Defense LawyersDorchester Bar Association (Past President)American Veteran's Association (Army Reserve Veteran, various expert badges and commendations awarded)Mensa. Call the office to inquire of Attorney Perez's direct phone number to insure attorney-client confidentiality in all communications.

Lisa Parlagreco

Firm: Lisa A. Parlagreco, Attorney-At-Law
92 State St , Boston , Massachusetts 02109
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
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.
