Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly will someone respond if I submit the contact form?
I aim to respond to all inquiries within one business day. For urgent criminal matters — an arrest, an arraignment, or a probation issue — call the office directly. Form submissions are not monitored in real time.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. The initial consultation costs nothing and carries no obligation. You can ask questions, get a straight answer about your situation, and decide from there.
What if I was arrested late at night or over the weekend?
Call the office. I make myself available for urgent criminal matters outside standard business hours. Arraignments in Massachusetts typically happen within 24 hours of an arrest — that window is too short to wait until Monday.
Do I need to know all the details before I call?
No. Call with whatever you know. You don't need a prepared statement or a complete account of events. I'll ask what I need to know.
I wasn't arrested — I was injured in an accident. Can I still reach out?
Yes. Personal injury consultations are also free. Whether you were hurt in a car accident, a slip and fall, or another incident, I can tell you whether you have a viable claim and what the process looks like. There's no cost to find out.
