Highly recommend Jack as he is extremely well versed in the law and one of the best criminal defense lawyers in New England. If you or someone you know is in need of legal counsel, don't hesitate for a moment to get in touch.

Jack literally probably saved my life. I was facing 5 months to 2 1/2 years for a DUI charge. A rogue cop in Marshfield pulled me over 100 yards from the DAV and claimed I swerved across both lines. Jack skillfully cross examined the cop and even got him to screw up counting numbers backwards on the stand. It was priceless the jury's reaction when they saw that. The jury came back in less than 30 minutes with a not guilty verdict. I own a company and had numerous contracts that would have been defaulted, I would have lost everything, maybe even my family.
Decorum, professionalism, and knowledge. Jack is all of these and more.

JACK ATWOOD could not have been worse. Atwood cost me 50 months in prison. Over a simple rsp charge as a local, licensed buyer of gold. First calling the alleged victims/witnesses “ very pathetic” during the plea colloquy, after the judge accepted the plea in open court. Insulting the court enraged the judge so he retracted the plea. Atwood admits he’s ineffective, apologizing to me and the court stating “I failed my client, this is truly ineffective assistance of counsel. I don’t know what else to say.” This is all in the transcripts if anyone wants a copy. It gets worse. Atwood fails to raise the 5th Amendment, double jeopardy Clause of the United States Constitution at that time or anytime having 6 months to prepare now before a 2nd and clearly illegal, costly trial. My plea was accepted in open court. Comm v Dean-Ganek “once plea is accepted it’s final and conclusive.” Had Atwood simply filed a double jeopardy claim after judge retracts or before the start of the second trial, I would’ve never seen a day in prison. We had a signed contract with the commonwealth stating I was going home on probation for this simple rsp charge. As a licensed buyer of 2nd hand articles like (pawn stars on tv) NOW ABOUT THE FEES; Atwood also agreed on a price of $10,000. Then he doubled it to 20k. Then he tripled it to $30,000. This man has 0 morals and less than 0 credibility. I should of dumped him and just lost the first 10k after I heard Howie Carr speak poorly about him calling him “Jake the Snake” on his show. I’m posting this so you are forewarned before you hire this inadequate, ineffective and reckless lawyer. And of course out of deep anger for my losses. My decision by the appeals court came out in March 6th Lawyers Weekly 2017. APPEALS COURT RENDERED DECISION IN MY FAVOR! On all the same issues I was denied on in superior court. Thank you to the ultra smart appeals courts judges, I’m finally going home to my grandchildren. After filing a pro se brief, using my entire time in prison to study the law, I won on all issues presented! Remember now my signed deal before Atwood’s egregious remarks was for probation. No prison, no restitution. We all agreed to probation. Now before same court, same Judge, same ADA, I’m sentenced to10 years in state prison! Please for the non legal haters, educate yourself on an Alford pleas before u form any opinion about me. I’m not about to flip a coin on my life. That’s what trial is. A coin flip! My question is what happened to probation? Atwood has passed his prime if he ever had a prime. So much more went bad including suggesting I hire appellant counsel Jeanne Kempthorne who took my money (so much for hiring Harvard educated lawyers) and she didn’t even provide a brief to me, after I paid her $22,000. Her agenda was to protect her boy ATWOOD! Imagine all these legal, brilliant minds with all their combined years of education and experience and not one raised the Fifth Amendment Double Jeopardy Clause. I should mention ( all part of the record ) before and during my Pretrial period, ATWOOD WAS TRAINING TO OPEN A CASH FOR GOLD BUYING BUSINESS BENEATH HIS LAW OFFICE IN Plymouth. We had a contract! He opened after I spent weeks training him and never paid me a dime of our contract! Had he spent more time on my case instead of sticking me up for a “cash for gold” business I may of had better results. Hard to believe? Contact me for the transcripts, or the high courts decision blaming Atwood for his shabby attempt of protecting my rights. I lost 50 months of my life because of Atwood. I lost 50 months of time with my grandson and daughter who are in our custody who very much needed me. I can never get that back can I Atwood? Tell me Jack, did you take an oath to uphold the constitution? They why didn’t you?

I was facing 5 months to 2 1/2 years for a DUI charge.
A rogue cop in Marshfield pulled me over 100 yards
from the DAV and claimed I swerved across both lines.
Jack skillfully cross examined the cop and even got him
to screw up counting numbers backwards on the stand.
It was priceless the jury's reaction when they saw that.
The jury came back in less than 30 minutes with a not
guilty verdict.
I own a company and had numerous contracts that would

even my family.
Thanks Jack for saving my life!
