At Teper Legal, PLLC, Attorney Adam E. Teper, Esq. provides aggressive, strategic, and client-focused criminal defense representation throughout the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Every person accused of a crime is presumed innocent and is entitled to the full protections of the United States Constitution and the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights. Attorney Teper is committed to ensuring that law enforcement, prosecutors, and the courts are held to those constitutional standards at every stage of the criminal justice process.

From arraignment through trial, sentencing, and post-disposition matters, Attorney Teper works to protect your rights, challenge unlawfully obtained evidence, negotiate favorable resolutions when appropriate, and aggressively litigate cases that should proceed to trial.

*Consistent with the mission and values of Teper Legal, the firm selectively accepts criminal defense matters. WE DO NOT REPRESENT INDIVIDUALS CHARGED WITH DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OFFENSES, SEXUAL OFFENSES, CHILD ABUSE OFFENSES, OR CRIMES INVOLVING THE ABUSE, NEGLECT OR CRUELTY OF ANIMALS. This allows the firm to remain focused on the practice areas and clients that align with its core mission of protecting constitutional rights while advocating for the welfare of animals and vulnerable individuals. 

A criminal accusation does not equal guilt. Law enforcement officers and prosecutors must follow the Constitution throughout every investigation and prosecution. Teper Legal carefully examines every case for violations involving:

• Illegal searches and seizures under the Fourth Amendment
• Unlawful traffic stops and arrests
• Miranda and Fifth Amendment violations
• Due process violations
• Improper police procedures
• Witness credibility issues
• Evidentiary challenges
• Constitutional violations that may result in suppression of evidence or dismissal of charges

Attorney Teper believes that every client deserves competent legal counsel, individualized attention, and a vigorous defense regardless of the allegations they face.
