Results that Matter!
I am committed to providing personalized and strategic representation to each of my clients. My dedication to thorough preparation and advocacy has led to successful outcomes in both Massachusetts and Rhode Island courts. Here are some of my recent case results:
OUI Charge – Not Guilty Verdict (Massachusetts)
Client charged with Operating Under the Influence after a single-car accident. Despite police citing four open containers in the vehicle, I challenged the evidence at trial. The jury returned a unanimous not guilty verdict in just 15 minutes.
Driving on Suspended License – Case Dismissed (Rhode Island)
Client faced mandatory jail time for driving on a suspended license. I filed a motion arguing the traffic stop was unconstitutional. The court agreed, and the case was dismissed just before Christmas.
Receiving a Stolen Vehicle: Charges Dropped (Massachusetts)
My client was found in a vehicle reported as stolen and charged accordingly. I filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that there wasn't sufficient evidence to prove my client knew the car was stolen. The court agreed, and the case was dismissed entirely before going to trial.
DUI Dismissed (Rhode Island)
Client, a military veteran, was charged with DUI after being stopped for driving without headlights and registering a breath test over the legal limit. Facing potential license suspension and job loss, I advocated for their participation in Rhode Island's Veterans Treatment Court. Upon successful completion of the program, the DUI charge was dismissed, preserving my client's driving privileges and employment.
Costly Dog Ownership Dispute – Resolved on First Court Date (Massachusetts)
After years of litigation and significant legal expense, the client retained Attorney Joseph DeStefano and I. We resolved the case in the client’s favor on the very first court date, saving him thousands.
