- Criminal DefenseIf you have been arrested or suspect that you are under investigation for a crime, it is extremely important to consult with a criminal defense attorney before making any statement to police or investigators.
- DUI/DWIIn Massachusetts, it is illegal for a business or private party to serve alcohol to an obviously intoxicated person. A person injured in a drunk driving accident or bar fight can, under liquor liability laws (dram shop laws), sue the bar owner or server for damages. Server liability can be difficult to prove since an attorney needs to find witnesses to state the intoxication was obvious.

If you would like to speak with an attorney from our Boston firm, Louison, Costello, Condon & Pfaff, LLP about a possible lawsuit, please contact our office at the first opportunity. It is important to begin the necessary investigation and get witness statements as soon as possible in order to build a strong case. If the assault or accident resulted in a catastrophic personal injury, such as traumatic brain injury (TBI) or paralysis, our lawyers will see that you get the right medical evaluation and treatment.
- Premises LiabilityUnder Massachusetts premises liability law, the owner and manager of a property are responsible for maintaining it in a reasonably safe condition. When negligent maintenance results in an injury to a visitor, the victim is entitled to damages for medical treatment and pain and suffering. A premises liability claim might involve a slip and fall accident and back injury, or a fatal assault resulting from security negligence.
