Providing Business and Personal Legal Services

Leo's goal was to provide the highest quality of legal services at a reasonable cost by drawing on his experience as a Big Eight tax attorney and criminal tax prosecutor with the Massachusetts Attorney General's office.
The firm has grown to provide legal services to individuals, families, businesses and lenders throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and beyond.
