Jack Atwood PC

Took all my money fought me tooth and nail for a jury trial and then insisted I could not take the stand... I truly think he let me sink on purpose ... they're was zero evidence against me I mean zero he dropped the ball after like 60 grand and I went away for over 3 years for a crime I did not commit . I don't know if he's still practicing but I would have done just as good with a free legal aid attorney guys a jerk to thinks he knows it all

Jack Atwood is too cocky for his own good. He represented me in a vehicular homicide dui case and truthfully couldn't have done worse, and I paid him $20,000. He wasn't present at my arraignment, missed several court dates, leaving me to have to explain to the judge, and d.a., What was going on. Then most importantly, he didn't even file a single motion, and during trial it became known that there were serious chain of custody issues with my blood draw, and it shouldn't have been allowed as evidence, but Jack never filed a motion to challenge it so it was too late. A single motion could have and would have saved me over 3 years of incarceration. I could have done 2 1/2 years max in county jail for vehicular homicide without d.u.i. Instead I got a 5-6 year sentence in state prison. Don't get me wrong, I deserved every bit of that time, but if Jack did his job instead of thinking he knew everything without even looking through the files, I wouldn't have had to do a day over 2 1/2 years. Then he comes to visit me and acts like he did a great job getting me only 5-6. Just about every case similar to mine gets approximately that amount of time, I could have represented myself and got a 5-6. Anyway, just be careful with this guy, he talks a good talk, and is a pitbull in trial, but there are many others doing time right now that have had similar problems with this guy, I know because I was just there talking with a few and they all had the same issues. He also belittles you constantly by talking to you and explaining everything as though you don't comprehend basic courtroom procedure and law. Overall just a bad experience. He had my life in his hands and couldn't have cared less.

Jack has such knowledge and I can't stress enough control of the court process it's absolutely invaluable. This man has represented me and many of my friends in wrongful prosecution and has always managed to get to the truth and have the facts be told. If only everyone could be represented with such competency.

Jack literally probably saved my life. I was facing 5 months to 2 1/2 years for a DUI charge. A rogue cop in Marshfield pulled me over 100 yards from the DAV and claimed I swerved across both lines. Jack skillfully cross examined the cop and even got him to screw up counting numbers backwards on the stand. It was priceless the jury's reaction when they saw that. The jury came back in less than 30 minutes with a not guilty verdict. I own a company and had numerous contracts that would have been defaulted, I would have lost everything, maybe even my family. Thanks Jack for saving my life!

Highly recommend Jack as he is extremely well versed in the law and one of the best criminal defense lawyers in New England. If you or someone you know is in need of legal counsel, don't hesitate for a moment to get in touch.
