BOSTON WHITE COLLAR CRIMES LAWYERS
VETERAN TRIAL ATTORNEYS & EXPERIENCED NEGOTIATORS

With over 100 combined years of depth and experience, we offer an essential approach in today’s complex legal landscape – we seek to make peace, but always prepare for war. Whether a crisis arises in the form of a criminal investigation, regulatory inquiry, company-threatening crisis, or complex commercial dispute, we are equipped to take immediate action on multiple fronts with a focused perspective.

Because our defense team is comprised of gifted trial lawyers and veteran investigators, prosecutors readily recognize our ability to poke holes in their investigations and they take our threats to take a case to trial very seriously. At the same time, we have established our reputation as calm and savvy negotiators over time by striving to maintain close working relationships with key government officials.
