Defense Attorney with Prosecution Experience
My years as a prosecutor have provided me with experience and knowledge that are extremely useful in my work as a defense attorney today. I have a deep understanding of the criminal justice system and the strategies that prosecutors commonly use. This allows me to anticipate arguments against my clients and build defenses that aim to counter them. Not only that, but I have developed numerous relationships with judges and prosecutors alike in Worcester County and beyond. These are beneficial in negotiations, as it helps me navigate them with skill and tact.

What Should You Tell Your Defense Attorney?
It is best to be as transparent as possible with a defense attorney. Their role is to advocate for clients and tell their stories. Doing this is difficult for an attorney if they do not have the details they need.
Under Massachusetts law, most communication between clients and lawyers is protected. This is called “attorney-client” privilege. It aims to allow clients to speak candidly with attorneys without fear that what they say will be revealed or used against them in court.
Typically, attorney-client privilege applies to all forms of communication. This includes conversations, phone calls, text messages, and emails. It also applies to documents that attorneys and clients create together.
There are some exceptions to attorney-client privilege, however. For example, if a client shares information about an ongoing crime, an attorney could have to report this information to authorities. Additionally, if the attorney is called to testify, a court may require them to disclose information that attorney-client privilege might otherwise protect.
