Criminal Defense Guides
A criminal charge is one of the most disorienting experiences a person can face. In the middle of that fear and confusion, the right information can make an enormous difference — helping people understand what's actually happening to them, what to expect, and what not to do while their case moves forward. These guides bring together more than 30 years of Massachusetts criminal defense experience into plain-language answers for the questions people ask most, on the charges we see most often. Read them online below, or download the full guide to keep for reference.
We wrote these because good people who had a really bad day deserve clear answers, not just legal jargon.
Whether you're facing charges yourself or supporting someone who is, these guides are here to help you understand what comes next.
