Pre-trial motions are made by the prosecution and criminal defense attorney in an effort to set boundaries in the event that the case goes to trial. The acceptable use of evidence, legal arguments and witnesses at trial are established according to which pre-trial motions are made, granted and denied. If the case is resolved with a plea bargain or dismissed, there is no need for pre-trial motions.
As a former state prosecutor Brad achieved successful outcomes in 96% of all his cases. As a federal prosecutor he never lost a single case. During the past 10 years he's brought that same level of professionalism and work ethic to his criminal defense practice which includes the defense of cases and matters before Federal District Court, the Superior Court, the Supreme Judicial Court and Court of Appeals, District and Juvenile Courts, the SEC, NASD, MSD and NYSE.
Brad's view on the practice of law is best stated when he says, "As a state and federal prosecutor I was trained to think inside the box; to routinely place things within the context of office policy and legal precedent. Now, as an experienced criminal defense attorney handling difficult and sophisticated cases, I am motivated and driven to think outside the box and consistently try to take my cases places where no defense attorney has thought of going."
Brad is admitted to practice in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, New York, the United States District Court of Massachusetts, and in the United States Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit. He has also been admitted to practice law pro hac vice in NH, CT, NJ, MD, WI, AZ, and CA.
