My practice focuses on securing fair compensation for clients facing property takings, regulatory challenges, and personal injury claims. I offer free consultations and work on a contingent fee basis to ensure accessibility to justice. Having tried over 100 cases and secured multiple million-dollar verdicts, I combine deep legal expertise with personalized counsel tailored to each client's unique needs.My background includes early career experience at Berg and Laipson in Worcester, MA, and I maintain an active caseload across 10 Massachusetts counties. I prioritize client engagement at their preferred location, whether at the property in question or one of my two office locations. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my extensive trial experience and dedication to understanding local land use dynamics. I hold degrees from Boston College and Boston College Law School, where I graduated with honors. My practice remains rooted in the principles of integrity, advocacy, and community service that have guided my career since 2006.
