About
I have extensive trial experience in criminal defense as well as administrative/governmental agency matters and appeals. I previously served as an Assistant District Attorney for the Cape and Islands District, prosecuting both adult and juvenile matters, while serving as primary trial prosecutor of all juvenile jury cases. Since 2005, I have zealosuly represented clients in all areas of criminal defense across Massachusetts, ranging from all forms of violent and non-violent felonies and misdemeanors, including sexual assaults, homicides, white collar crimes, drug offenses and operating under the influence charges.I specialize in a wide range of administrative/government agency appeals, including, matters with the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV), Department of Children and Families (DCF), Sex Offender Registry Board (SORB), Massachusetts Parole Board and the Division of Insurance. Through my appellate work with RMV matters, I have obtained numerous successful results in license suspension appeals and hardship license requests to the Board of Appeal on Liability Policies and Bonds, the Massachusetts Superior Court, and at the appellate court level. I also regularly handle matters in the Juvenile Court, including criminal delinquency matters and Care and Protection and Truancy petitions. Further, since my work as part of the Northeastern University School of Law Prisoners’ Rights Clinic, I have continued to represent clients in life parole and parole violations hearings in front of the Massachusetts Parole Board.

I hired Mr. Madera to defend myself against a frivolous restraining order at the advice by my divorce attorney. Mr. Madera was very prepared and made sure we were ready to state our case with the goal of getting the order reversed. Due to the preparation and the information that we prepared we were able to get the order reversed very quickly in the court which resulted in getting me back with my kids right away. I can't say enough great things and would recommend him to any seeking great advice, strategy and results.
I had hired Cory to get my license back. The RMV had taken my license for 10 years. I had asked a few attorneys who is the best attorney going against the RMV, they all said Cory. I reached out to him and felt like their was a glimmer of hope. He reached out to RMV and got me a hearing in front of RMV board. The night before my hearing, Cory got a email, saying the RMV was not going forward with the suspension. Cory was great, he took the time to call or email me information. I was really impressed with him when I would reach out to him on weekend or at night and always got a reply. He did a amazing job and I would highly recommend him.
Cory was instrumental in guiding and directing me on what I needed to do to apply for a DUI hardship. When looking into the process of licence reinstatement, I was so confused and didn't know what to do. I found Cory by luck on Google. Cory's knowledge of the DUI laws and process is spot on as he successfully won me a favorable verdict. Cory has a keen eye for details and his followup skills impressed me as he directed me through this intricate eight year process. In short, I highly recommend Cory. He represented me to with confidence and professionalism.
I highly recommend attorney Madera. He helped my teenage son with a serious driving violation. He was very organized and responsive to meetings and phone calls. He was also patient in answering my questions. He was very positive as well as persistent with following up on the case which was held up due to covid. He was able to achieve a favorable outcome. Great job attorney Madera!
