Our Mission & Philosophy
At The Meehan Law Firm, our mission is simple: protect our clients’ rights, freedom, and future with unwavering dedication and skill. We understand that facing criminal charges, especially DUI charges can be one of the most stressful moments in a person’s life. Our role is not just to defend cases, but to guide clients through an unfamiliar legal system with clarity, confidence, and respect.
We believe strong defense begins with preparation, local knowledge, and a deep understanding of both the law and the people behind each case. Every client’s situation is unique, and we approach each case with a tailored strategy designed to minimize consequences and maximize outcomes. From first-time DUI arrests to complex criminal matters, our firm is committed to delivering thoughtful, strategic, and results-driven representation.
What Sets Our Defense Apart
Our firm’s strength lies in combining courtroom experience with real-world insight. Founded by a former Sheriff and Prosecutor, The Meehan Law Firm understands criminal cases from every angle: law enforcement, prosecution, and defense. This perspective allows us to anticipate how cases are built and where they can be challenged.
We focus heavily on early intervention, thorough investigation, and strategic motion practice. Our attorneys scrutinize police procedures, testing methods, and evidence handling to identify weaknesses that can lead to reduced charges, dismissals, or alternative resolutions. We also emphasize proactive communication, ensuring clients understand their options at every stage of the process.
