Criminal Defense Charges We Handle
Criminal charges come in many forms, and each one carries unique risks to your freedom, reputation, and future. Having a defense team that understands how prosecutors build cases and how to dismantle them is critical. Raipher defends clients against a wide spectrum of charges, including:
- Appeals: Challenging convictions and sentences through strategic appellate advocacy
- College Crimes: Representing students accused of underage drinking, campus assaults, drug possession, theft, or Title IX violations
- Drug Crimes: Defending against possession, distribution, trafficking, and manufacturing charges
- Motor Vehicle Crimes: Handling charges including DUI, reckless driving, license suspensions, and vehicular assault
- Sex Crimes: Defending against allegations of sexual assault, internet sex crimes, and related offenses
- Violent Crimes: Protecting clients facing assault, robbery, firearms violations, and homicide charges
Each of these cases has the potential to alter your future permanently. The sooner you have an experienced defense lawyer on your side, the stronger your position becomes.
The Courtroom Advantage In Criminal Defense
When you’re accused of a crime, nothing matters more than having a lawyer who can hold their ground in court. Many defense attorneys steer clients into quick pleas to avoid trial. We don’t.
Raipher has decades of experience in Massachusetts criminal courts, handling everything from misdemeanor hearings to felony jury trials and appeals. Our reputation as trial lawyers means prosecutors know we are prepared to take a case the distance. That credibility often leads to better plea offers, dismissed charges, or outright acquittals.
Every case is approached with precision and preparation, from investigating police conduct to challenging evidence and building a defense that stands up under pressure. When your freedom is at risk, you need advocates who won’t back down.
Outcomes That Make The Difference
The results of a criminal case can define the rest of your life. With the right defense, you can secure outcomes that protect your future rather than destroy it. Raipher fights to:
- Challenge The Evidence: Suppress unlawful searches, flawed forensics, and unreliable testimony.
- Protect Your Record: Minimize the impact of charges on jobs, education, and immigration status.
- Fight Excessive Penalties: Reduce or eliminate jail time, fines, and other harsh consequences.
- Pursue Appeals When Justice Demands It: Identify errors that led to unfair convictions and challenge them.
- Secure Your Future: Resolve cases in ways that allow you to move forward with stability and confidence.
These are not battles you should fight alone. The sooner you have trial-ready lawyers on your side, the more leverage you’ll have to protect what matters most.
