Serpa Law Office of Brookline

Serpa Law Office of Brookline is a criminal defense lawyer in Brookline, MA, located at 20 Park Plaza #400A. The firm represents clients in the Boston Municipal Court and the District Courts of Greater Boston, handling matters such as OUI, domestic violence, larceny, firearms charges, probation violations, restraining orders, and motor vehicle offenses. Attorney Joe Serpa has practiced Massachusetts criminal defense exclusively since 1995, after graduating from Georgetown University Law Center.

The practice focuses on resolving cases as early as possible, with a specific emphasis on clerk-magistrate hearings. These pre-arraignment proceedings allow for the possibility of stopping a criminal complaint before it issues, which can prevent a charge from appearing on a client's CORI. The firm's approach involves preparing for these hearings by reviewing police reports, identifying evidentiary weaknesses, and assembling character or restitution materials to provide the clerk-magistrate with reasons to deny a complaint application. The office maintains two locations, with the Boston office at 20 Park Plaza #400A sitting steps from the Arlington Street Green Line station.

The firm provides specialized defense tracks for various client needs. For licensed professionals in fields such as law, medicine, and finance, the defense is built with potential licensing board consequences in view. The firm also handles defense for college and graduate students facing school disciplinary processes, as well as non-citizens and visa holders, such as those on F-1 or H-1B visas, who face immigration consequences tied to the outcome of a criminal case. Additionally, the firm assists tradespeople and CDL holders regarding motor vehicle offenses and driver's license implications. Attorney Serpa represents clients at clerk-magistrate hearings and defends OUI, domestic violence, larceny, and firearms charges, along with probation violations, restraining orders, motor vehicle offenses, and the other criminal cases heard in the Boston Municipal Court and the District Courts of Greater Boston. The firm’s case results, dismissal results, and client reviews provide examples of the representation.
