About

You’ve been arrested and chances are you are uncertain what steps you should take or whom you should reach out to for help. This is when you need a skilled criminal defense attorney to make sure your rights are protected. Anyone charged with a crime has a Fifth Amendment right to remain silent. This is the recommended course of action until you speak with an attorney. An attorney will need to understand the time line of events leading up to your arrest as well as the overall circumstances of your arrest; however, until you have contacted us, do not speak with law enforcement agencies beyond providing your name.

I was provided Peter’s name through a mutual contact and reached out to him for legal assistance and advice, during a particularly stressful time for me personally. I was looking for someone to help represent me in a criminal defense capacity. The first thing that impressed me was how Peter took our initial call to discuss my situation, while he was on vacation. His immediate response demonstrated to me, I would be able to count on him. The second thing I noticed was his approach. He wanted to understand my current situation, how things were impacting me, and how I was handing it as a person. He provided guidance and acted initially, more like a friend rather than an attorney. That impressed me, even before I decided to hire Peter. As for the preparation around the case itself. Peter was very straightforward in what he needed and expected from me as a client. I was impressed with his compressive review of the facts around potential outcomes in my case. I appreciated his insights and strategic thinking as he developed our approach. Always keeping me involved and part of the decision making process prior to the court appearance. The outcome of my case was very positive and clearly was a result of all the work Peter did behind the scenes leading up to the court appearance. I would recommend Peter’s services to anyone looking for legal representation in and around the Boston area.

I would absolutely recommend Peter. From day one and up until my last court date he was always readily available. Peter personally answered every single phone call and always kept me up to date. On the day of my hearing I was a nervous wreck, Peters’s calm professional demeanor and his ability to garner the best possible result I could ask for, had me walk away from one of the most difficult experiences with the weight of the world off my shoulders.

Attorney Padula helped guide me along every step of the way through a restraining order I needed to ensure my safety. He was kind, patient, and understanding to me during this difficult time. I would recommend Attorney Padula to anyone who needs a warm friendly Attorney to help assist with their legal proceedings during their difficult time.

From the start Peter was very helpful with consulting me through the process, always asking if I had any questions about anything and if he was being clear enough. He constantly kept me updated on the case, when ever he got news of something he notified me right away. He made the trial process easy by meeting with me before the trial and give me a rundown of how it was going to go, being my first time having to go through a trial it made it less stressful. I appreciate the great service that he did for me and would recommend him to anyone need legal assistance.

Peter was hired a couple months back when my license was suspended. He helped me with my appeal and did an excellent job helping me out with the whole process. I ended up winning my appeal with the help of Peter and his work which I am very grateful for. I would definitely recommend Peter if you need a lawyer. He will give you all of his time and get you the best result he possibly can with your situation. Overall I had a great experience with Peter.
