After an assault, you need to act quickly and work with the Russell Defense Firm. Depending on the circumstances , you may be facing felony or misdemeanor charges. The moment police get involved, you need to contact Attorney Russell right away. An allegation of assault and battery upon a family or household member now includes special procedures for the prosecution to delay arraignment, written rulings kept in a statewide domestic violence record keeping system, and inquiry before arraignment or bail. A dismissal will not be removed from this "database of abusers".

Larceny/ Fraud/ Theft Crimes 

Larceny, fraud, or theft crimes are serious offenses that require the representation of an aggressive criminal attorney. If you or a loved one have been accused for any theft offense and charged with larceny, fraud, embezzlement, false pretenses, or false material statements, you need to contact an experienced lawyer immediately.

Violent Crimes 

The most severely prosecuted crimes in Massachusetts are violent crimes. Any crime that uses violence as a means to an end or as the objective is considered a violent crime. When specific crimes of violence are alleged, the prosecution is trained to ask for a 58A "dangerousness" hearing, for an order of pre-trial detention. For violent crimes, you or a loved one may not get a personal recognizance or just "bail out at arraignment". Prosecutors in Suffolk and Middlesex County are specifically trained in requesting high bail and dangerousness for crimes of violence. This includes rape, indecent assault and battery, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and other violent felonies.
