How quickly can you take my case?
We respond immediately. Our attorneys are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — including holidays. We understand that criminal charges don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Call (617) 501-0411 any time of day or night.
What types of criminal cases do you handle in Massachusetts?
We handle the full range of criminal charges in Massachusetts: DUI/OUI, drug offenses (possession, distribution, trafficking), assault and battery, domestic violence, restraining orders, white collar crimes, traffic violations, theft, shoplifting, trespassing, weapons charges, and all other misdemeanor and felony offenses in any Massachusetts court.
Can you help if I was already charged or arraigned?
Absolutely. It's never too late to get a strong defense attorney involved. Even after arraignment, there are many legal strategies available — from challenging evidence and negotiating plea agreements to seeking a CWOF (Continuance Without a Finding) or fighting charges at trial. Call us immediately regardless of where you are in the process.
What is a CWOF and can it help my case?
A CWOF (Continuance Without a Finding) in Massachusetts allows you to admit to sufficient facts without being found guilty. If you complete a probation period successfully, the case is dismissed. This is an excellent outcome that preserves your record. Clifford Defense frequently negotiates CWOFs for eligible clients — call (617) 501-0411 to see if you qualify.
Can I get my record sealed or expunged in Massachusetts?
Yes. Massachusetts allows sealing of many criminal records after a waiting period, and expungement in limited circumstances including cases that occurred before age 21 or cases that were wrongfully charged. Clifford Defense can review your record and help you clear your criminal history. Call (617) 501-0411 for a free review.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. We understand that criminal charges create enormous financial stress. We offer flexible payment plans and will work with you to make quality legal representation accessible regardless of your financial situation. Your first consultation is always 100% free with no obligation.
