Protecting Your Rights in Cases of Assault or Homicide
At the Boston law firm of Thomas McKean, we represent people who need to answer criminal charges of murder, assault, rape, illegal possession of weapons, or other offenses. Contact our office for a free consultation with an experienced criminal trial lawyer.
Massachusetts defense attorney Thomas McKean has more than 30 years of experience with criminal law. As a former prosecutor in Suffolk County and Middlesex County, he has a thorough understanding of what the government needs to prove against you in order to obtain a conviction. He also understands how weaknesses in the prosecution's case can be exposed and developed to promote a favorable outcome for the defense. Especially in cases involving people in serious trouble with the law for the first time, a sentence for no additional jail or prison time is a realistic objective in a negotiated plea even on a felony charge.
Our law firm helps people achieve the best results available under the facts and the law in the face of such violent crime charges as the following:
- Murder, homicide, manslaughter, or drunk driving homicide
- Simple assault, aggravated assault, or attempted murder
- Sex crimes such as forcible rape, attempted rape, or sexual assault
- Carjacking or kidnaping
- Weapons offenses including possession of a concealed weapon, possession of a gun in a motor vehicle, or possession of a firearm by a felon
- Assault or weapons charges resulting in probation violations for a previous conviction
- Domestic violence charges
In defending you on an assault or weapons charge, we not only work hard to minimize your exposure to punishment on the current alleged offense, we also keep your broader interests in mind, whether they involve your status as a college or university student, a member of a licensed profession, an immigrant or foreign national subject to deportation, or other circumstances.
We represent both adults and juveniles who are charged with violent crimes. To learn more about our law firm's ability to protect your interests in a felony or misdemeanor case, contact Boston criminal defense lawyer Thomas McKean for a free consultation.
