About Matthew W. Peterson Law

I am a lawyer in Massachusetts who represents people charged with crimes, in family law matters, and in immigration. If you’re looking at this, you probably have a legal problem that seems insurmountable. You may feel helpless and frustrated in the face of going to battle outmatched by the government, some faceless corporation, or even your neighbor. The legal system may seem complicated, intimidating, and unfeeling. I decided to be a lawyer because I wanted to fight to fix people’s problems, whether it’s as big as protecting their constitutional rights or as simple as a dispute with their neighbor. I will take your case personally. I will work tirelessly to find the best solution to your problem. I will not shy away from a fight. I know how difficult it can be to find a lawyer you can trust. You may be wrestling with one of the toughest problems of your life, whether it’s a criminal charge or the possibility of being deported to a country you don’t know. You deserve an attorney who will give your case the attention it deserves, explain the situation in terms you can understand, and treat you with respect. I commit to doing that for every case I take.

I had the pleasure of working with Matthew Peterson during my recent legal matter, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From our initial consultation, it was evident that he possesses a deep understanding of the law and a keen ability to navigate complex legal issues. Mr. Peterson communicated clearly and effectively throughout the process, ensuring I was informed and comfortable with each step. What truly sets him apart is his dedication to client advocacy. Mr. Peterson took the time to understand my unique situation and worked tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome. His attention to detail and strategic thinking were invaluable in addressing potential challenges. Overall, Mr. Peterson is a consummate professional who combines expertise with genuine care for clients. I am grateful for his support and would recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation, and after all case was dismissed!

William Manchinton Jr, is an outstanding attorney. When I was desperate and had nowhere to turn, with very limited time to find representation, he immediately stepped in and took my case. His compassion, expertise, and dedication were evident from the start. Within hours, he was fully engaged, excellent communication, thoroughly understanding the details of my case and advocating for me with incredible skill. Bill did an exceptional job representing me and ensuring justice was served. I am profoundly grateful for his efforts and highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation. His team was also outstanding, available and supportive . Elijah is an exceptional assistant. With Bill on your side, you can be rest assured that you're in capable, efficient, and compassionate hands. Thank you Bill! A.M.M.H

Mr. Peterson was very helpful. He is an attentive listener, asks the right questions to get to the heart of the matter and provides valuable feedback. After some time he even followed up, which I thought was a great touch. I very much recommend Mr. Peterson's services and will go to him again myself in the future if the need arises.

Mr. Peterson got me the best possible outcome for my gun charge considering the circumstances. Even a year after the case was concluded and I was sentenced, I reached out to him with some further concerns regarding my charges and he happily helped me and spoke with attorneys I was considering hiring in my home state. He was always available to speak when I called and answered my many, many questions. I don't have much experience with the legal system so I'm really glad I had an experienced and helpful attorney to stand by me as I went through the case. I definitely recommend you hire Matthew Peterson for all your legal troubles.

Megan Carolan

I found myself in an unfortunate situation and needing legal representation. Having never been in trouble before, the legal/court process was all new to me and I was unsure where to begin. After taking the time on a Saturday morning to have a consultation with me, I hired Mr. Peterson to represent me for a clerk magistrate hearing and whatever followed. He took my case less than 2 weeks prior to my hearing and started working right away. He explained the process to me and was very transparent, setting my expectations accordingly. The day of the hearing Mr. Peterson was on time and well prepared. He was able to get my case dismissed before a criminal complaint was even issued by the Commonwealth. Although I don't have anything to compare it to, his services are priced fairly. He was responsive to all my messages and hopped on a call whenever I needed to clarify any detail or ask in depth questions. I would absolutely use his services again if I'm ever in need of representation and I would not hesitate to recommend him to a friend or family.
