We Help You Protect Your Record, Your Reputation, and Your Future.

Being charged with a crime in Stoughton District Court can feel overwhelming — especially in a small-town setting where word travels fast. Whether you're a parent, student, business owner, or first-time offender, the impact of a criminal charge on your life, career, and reputation can be huge.

At DeGiacomo & Mikhlin, P.C., we help people in Stoughton and the surrounding communities navigate the criminal justice system with clarity, discretion, and a strategy built to protect what matters most. If you're facing criminal charges, we’re here to fight for you — and we know how to get results in this court.

Local Court. Local Knowledge. Real Results.

Stoughton District Court handles a wide variety of criminal cases, and we’ve defended clients here for years. We understand how local prosecutors handle different types of charges — and we know how to push for the outcomes that keep your record clean and your life on track.

We move quickly and strategically to:

  • Fight for dismissal or pretrial diversion when available
  • Reduce the impact of charges on your job, family, and future
  • Minimize unnecessary court appearances
  • Negotiate CWOFs (Continued Without a Finding) when appropriate
  • Take your case to trial when needed

A Smart, Discreet Defense — Because Reputation Matters Here

Stoughton is a close-knit community. For many of our clients, keeping their legal situation private is just as important as avoiding a conviction.

  • Avoid unnecessary escalation with police, prosecutors, or the media
  • Keep your case moving — and get you back to your life

  • Resolve the matter without a public record
  • Pursue pretrial diversion or a CWOF
