College students in Massachusetts especially in Boston face stiff penalties when they are charged with a crime. College students face both penalties in court as well as with the school. Many unique issues arise when representing college students in Boston. In addition to the penalties the court may impose, college disciplinary committees may also impose harsh penalties including expulsion for some offenses. Any student getting financial aid needs to read how a conviction may impact their financial aid.
Client Testimonial
Never having been in trouble with the law before, I was extremely nervous when I was caught underage drinking at a bar with false identification. Mr. Donovan was so extremely helpful at helping me understand my case, the potential outcomes, and putting my nerves at ease. He kept in contact with me and my mom who was two hours away the entire time until the morning of my court date, where he met met at the court house. He represented me so well. I really couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.”
