The Massachusetts Criminal Defense Group:
Fierce, Tough, and Aggressive Legal Representation
Getting arrested, or being the subject of a Massachusetts criminal investigation, is a life-changing event, no matter which court has jurisdiction over your case. The police and prosecuting attorneys will get the matter going and will start bombarding you with questions, accusations, and scare tactics.
Law enforcement officers can lie to you. They'll tell you that they "already know, and can prove, that you did it," or that your friend and accomplice already admitted that "you and he committed the crime." Because police officers, particularly detectives, are judged by their ability to catch suspects and close cases, you make their job easier by confessing. Don't be fooled, remain silent.
Even if you are not guilty, you worry that the case looks bad; and it usually does. That's because up to now, only law enforcement or the District Attorney's Office has been in charge. But that can suddenly change when you hire the experienced and aggressive criminal defense attorneys from The Massachusetts Criminal Defense Group.
From the very moment you first contact us, your case will suddenly start to look better because you will start fighting back by letting us find the best defenses and evidence to help you.
Do I Really Need a Lawyer?
Prosecutors and police sometimes overcharge cases, causing criminal defendants to make a plea deal because of the threat of jail time or other substantial penalties. Our attorneys force the government to justify the charges and meet their burden of proof every time they seek to take away our client's liberty or property. Because we're so committed to the very best in criminal defense, we work with several types of experts - lab technicians, weapons experts, skid mark analysts, breathalyzer technicians, and accident reconstruction specialists - all with an eye toward building great defenses for our clients.
Why Can't I Use a Public Defender?
Some reports indicate that 7-out-of-10 people who use public defenders are incarcerated. Most public defenders are young lawyers, right out of law school. They are overworked, underpaid, and are handling too many cases to give you the best possible defense. You need a quality criminal defense attorney as your own advocate.
The Bottom Line:
You Get What You Pay For
When defending your life, results are everything. The difference between the cheapest and most expensive criminal defense attorney is trivial compared to the effect that an inadequate defense will have on your life. A bad outcome can result in lifelong loss of income, jail time, family crisis and tremendous distress.
"I Never Thought This Could Ever Happen to Me."
You don't have to be a hardened criminal to end-up getting arrested by the police or charged with a criminal complaint by the District Attorney's office. Think about it: you're driving home after your company holiday party, talking with the children on your cell phone, and you get pulled-over and arrested for DUI/OUI and Driving to Endanger. Alternatively, you get caught up in an argument with the manager of a local store over a bad check and you get arrested and charged with both Larceny by Check and A&B. This may never happen to you, but if it does, you need the help of an experienced and relentless criminal defense attorney.
When the Charges Are Serious,
Contact the Attorneys Who Fight to Win
We are fearless in the courtroom. Our attorneys challenge the evidence and witnesses, and are tireless in our pursuit to hear two magic words at the end of trial - "Not Guilty!" Even when the best we can do is reduce charges, we vigorously seek alternatives to jail, working with probation and the courts to investigate drug or alcohol treatment programs or other positive solutions for our clients.
Truly a Client-Focused
Type of Law Firm
Our unique model is such that our Founder and Lead Attorney, Irwin M. Pollack
places particular criminal defense attorneys in each court so that they become familiar with the court personnel, the Assistant District Attorneys and the Judges. Clients often rave about the fact that his or her attorney from our firm negotiated their particular case with the D.A. by pointing out the shortcomings in such a way that all charges were greatly reduced, or dismissed, in a relatively short period of time.
Coupled with our 18-Point Defense Strategy, another exclusive benefit of our firm is that several of our attorneys are former prosecutors. Having worked for the District Attorney's Office, they are now on the side of defending those charged with criminal offenses. Our clients take advantage of the prior experience and inside information only an ex-prosecutor has. We focus on any type of criminal offense including OUI/DUI charges, assault & battery and domestic abuse, drug crimes, college crimes, motor vehicle offenses, gun and weapons charges, white collar crimes, restraining order violations, and even theft crimes.
From our offices in Woburn, Worcester, Springfield, Norwood, and Plymouth, our Massachusetts criminal attorneys extend their practice as we also represent clients facing outstanding warrants, probation violations, RMV Hearings, and probable cause hearings before a Clerk Magistrate.
