Criminal Defense

When you are accused of a crime, you are in danger of losing your liberty and livelihood. Even more importantly, a minor crime resulting in probation, may create severe immigration problems for you.  As a Boston, Massachusetts criminal attorney, that's where I can help you. I will try to do everything legally possible to get your life back on track. When facing criminal charges anywhere in Massachusetts  there is no need to go it alone. I am here for people charged with a crime. If you already made an admission to the court and need to minimize the consequences, I may be able to help.  No matter what charges you are facing, I will try to obtain  the best possible result in your case.
