Taunton District Court Criminal Defense Attorney
Properly pronounced "TAHNT'N," there is more to know about this South Coast city than many realize. Due to the annexation of several neighboring towns, Taunton is irregularly shaped — like the shape of a triangle. Norton is to the northwest, Easton is to the north, Raynham to the northeast, Lakeville to the east, both Berkley and Dighton to the south, and Rehoboth closes the triangle on the west. The Central Fire Station in Taunton is the oldest functioning station house in the United States and historic Taunton City Hall is located adjacent to Church Green.
Local media covers Taunton and the general area — the Silver City Bulletin, The Taunton Call, Brockton Enterprise, and the Taunton Daily Gazette. A big story reported on last year was how the Bristol County District Attorney cited several stores at the Silver City Galleria with employing minors without work permits. Among those cited were Aeropostale, Best Buy, the Fashion Expo, and Gamestop.

Taunton Drug Possession and Drug Distribution Attorneys
Drug arrests tend to be fact-oriented. Our criminal lawyers want to know the type of drug you were charged with, the amount you allegedly had in your possession, and how the narcotics were seized.
Shopping Center Shoplifting Lawyers
Caught shoplifting at the Silver City Galleria? Where you arrested at Macy's or Sears? No matter what happened, our shoplifting attorneys build tailor-made defense strategies to expose the prosecution's weakness.
Taunton DUI Attorneys
Whether you were driving to or from Boston or Providence, on Route 24, Route 79, Route 104, Route 140, or Interstate 495, if you were pulled over and charged with an OUI you face severe consequences. Still, you should know that just because you were arrested for a DUI, it does not automatically mean that you will be convicted guilty. Our Taunton criminal attorneys check police reports for potential police oversight, improper procedures and arrests, and seek to suppress any evidence resulting from an illegal search and seizure or poor police conduct.
Can I Afford a DUI Lawyer?
Many lawyers charge high fees for DUI defense. At our firm, we want every person to have a lawyer. Because we handle over one hundred DUI (called OUI in Massachusetts) cases every year, we are able to keep our fees affordable for the average person. At the same time, we are able to give each case the personal attention it deserves.
Enhanced Weapon Charges
If you have been accused of a violent crime, you may be facing serious penalties if convicted. If you are charged with a weapons violation, either separately or as an underlying part of a criminal charge, you could face prison time spanning for decades. You need a strong attorney who will fight aggressively for you.
Our Taunton Criminal Lawyers Offer Low Flat-Fees and Payment Options

The cases that we primarily help clients with are drug and alcohol cases, theft cases, domestic violence cases, high school and college crimes surrounding Fake IDs, disorderly conduct, and misdemeanor assaults.
