Claimed Lawyer Profile

Biography

Very few lawyers have argued before the United States Supreme Court, even fewer have been successful.

Welcome to the Offices of Rosemary Curran Scapicchio. Attorney Scapicchio is a nationally acclaimed Criminal Defense Lawyer practicing in Boston, Massachusetts. She has been named one of the top ten attorneys in the country by Lawyers Weekly USA (one of only two lawyers in history to win the award twice) and one of the top ten attorneys in Massachusetts by Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly. She has also been named a Super Lawyer for the years 2003-2009.

She has appeared before the U.S. Supreme Court for a review of the constitutionality of the federal sentencing guidelines and was successful in persuading the court to declare the federal sentencing guidelines non-mandatory for every federal criminal defendant. A local newspaper account
of her client representation was headlined "Supreme Performance" and she is dedicated to providing that to every client.

Attorney Scapicchio will evaluate your case in her Boston law office and talk about how she can help during your initial consultation. She will never guarantee you a specific verdict, but if she accepts your case, she will guarantee that she will use everything she has learned over the past 19 years of trial experience, including her winning track record of "not guilty" verdicts to fight the charges against you. She will put the Commonwealth or the government to the test of proving every essential element of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt. Contact her today by phone, fax or e-mail to discuss your case.
