Massachusetts Criminal Defense Lawyer

Attorney Michael DelSignore became a lawyer to be a voice for people facing the most difficult moment of their lives — people who feel they have their backs against the wall and are trying to regain control of their future. That purpose has shaped his approach to every criminal case he has handled for over 20 years.

What Sets DelSignore Law Apart

A genuine commitment to standing up for people at the most difficult point in their lives, rooted in the belief that people deserve a second chance and a voice in the process.
A deep understanding of constitutional defenses — including search and seizure issues that can apply to gun possession, drug distribution, and many other serious charges — explained in detail across this site's blogs, videos, and podcasts.
Honest, direct communication at every stage of a case, even when the assessment is difficult to hear. Serious criminal cases involve difficult decisions, and clients need to be able to trust that their lawyer will not overpromise simply to be retained.
Support connecting clients to outside help for alcohol, drug, or other personal issues when relevant — addressing these issues honestly never hurts a case, and often helps it.

“I became a lawyer to be a voice for people who feel like they have nowhere else to turn. I believe in second chances, and I believe people deserve an honest assessment of their case — even when it's not what they want to hear. That's the kind of lawyer I try to be for every client, every day.” — Attorney Michael DelSignore

Why the Stakes Are High

Given how much is at stake, choosing an experienced criminal defense attorney early in the case is critical to understanding the realistic options available.

Michael was very professional and explained the process clearly and told us to be patient. After one year the charges got dismissed in the trial. Excellent knowledge of the court systems in the area of Boston. Would highly recommend him Ashwani

A careless decision on my part left me facing charges which would have severely hampered my ability to stay employed and support myself. But attorney DelSignore's skillful analysis and challenging of the evidence against me resulted in a conviction on a lesser charge. Now I'll be able to go on with my life, having learned a lesson I'll never forget. Thank you, Michael. Scott

Mike stuck with my case for 3.5 years and always kept me informed regarding the status. Ultimately, because of his due diligence, we ended up with an OUI not guilty verdict. This case could have gone many ways but his thorough review of the case and exceptional preparedness for trial ultimately drove a positive outcome. Thank you Mike! David

I highly recommend choosing this law firm to deal with your legal needs, you will not be dissatisfied. Ashley

I cannot express the gratitude towards Michael for his amazing work and help. It was a very stressful event and they certainly put me at as much ease as possible. From start to finish it took 14 months and all the way through they were both very engaged with me. Today was worth the wait, Michael was great in court and I was rightfully found not guilty. I would recommend Michael over and over again. Claire
