If you are facing the nightmare of DUI prosecution in New Hampshire or Massachusetts, then do not delay.  Protect your rights and liberty by calling me today today for a free consultation.  I will fight to make sure that the Government respects and honors your rights.  I will work to see that you get the best defense in your time of need.  I have years of experience in defense of criminal charges and motor vehicle offense.  My practice is concentrated in those areas and I am admitted to practice in the state and federal courts of New Hampshire and Massachusetts. 

Do not wait.  Fast action can head off trouble, while delay can result in lost opportunities and waiver of rights.  For example, in a New Hampshire DWI/DUI case, important filing deadlines pass within a month of an arrest.  If you ignore those deadlines, you may face significant additional penalties and lose opportunities to aid your defense at any subsequent trial.  The rules and procedures involved in such a case are not simple, but I know them well and I can guide you through your ordeal and minimize your risks.

Be careful when selecting an attorney.  You should not come to me for real estate or tax matters.  That's not what I do.  Likewise, don't choose an attorney for your criminal case based solely on an ad in the phone book, or because the attorney did your sister's will.  I have had a number of cases where clients have come to me, or contacted me from behind bars, after selecting their first attorney in this way.  Although I have had considerable success in getting new trials and subsequent acquittals for such client's, it would be better for you to call me in the first place
