Facing Criminal Charges in Massachusetts? 

You Deserve a Strong Defense — and a Clear Path Forward.

If you’ve been arrested, charged, or are under investigation in Massachusetts, your future could be on the line — and you need to act fast. A criminal charge can affect your freedom, your job, your family, and your reputation. You don’t just need legal representation. You need a defense strategy built for real results.

At DeGiacomo & Mikhlin, P.C., we defend people across Massachusetts against criminal charges of all kinds — from misdemeanors to serious felonies. Whether this is your first time facing the criminal justice system or you’ve been here before, we’re here to protect your rights, your record, and your future.

We Defend Criminal Charges in Courts Across Massachusetts

Our firm handles cases in district and superior courts statewide, including Boston, Brockton, Hingham, Milford, Stoughton, and beyond. We’ve earned a reputation for being strategic, aggressive when necessary, and always prepared to fight for the best outcome for our clients.

We handle all types of criminal charges in Massachusetts, including:

  • Assault and battery
  • OUI / DUI (Operating Under the Influence)
  • Domestic violence charges
  • Drug charges (possession, distribution, trafficking)
  • Larceny, shoplifting, and theft crimes
  • Firearms and weapons offenses

First-Time Offense? We’ll Help You Protect Your Record.

Many of our clients have never been in trouble before — and just want to make sure a single mistake doesn’t ruin their life. In Massachusetts, there are several legal options we can explore to avoid a permanent conviction, including:

  • Pretrial diversion programs
  • Dismissal before arraignment
  • CWOF (Continued Without a Finding)
  • Sealing your record once the case is resolved

But these outcomes aren’t automatic — they require a skilled and strategic legal defense from the start.
