Criminal Law

Criminal Defense
Scully & Lagos are experienced, aggressive criminal defense lawyers who have successfully defended clients in Clerk’s Hearings in district courts throughout Massachusetts.
DUI/DWI
Negligent Operation of a Motor Vehicle shouldn’t even be a crime. It should be left to the civil courts. But our legislature can’t help from criminalizing every type of conduct it possibly can, so now even negligence is criminal and punishable by up to two years in the house of correction. In my opinion whoever voted for this law should have been the ones punished. But police officers seem to love it, charging it either in conjunction with a drunk driving case or when an accident occurs, or sometimes even when there is no accident.
Traffic Violations
Client was charged with OUI drugs in Plymouth District Court. Police followed client home at 2:30 AM and alleged that he travelled 20 MPH over the speed limit, crossed over the yellow line and appeared under the influence of drugs. Inside the car a small amount of narcotics and purported drug paraphernalia were recovered. The client was also accused of failing numerous field sobriety tests. At trial the defense countered that the client was purposefully driving over the yellow line because it was dark and the road had no shoulder. The prosecution was unable to prove that the client was under the influence of drugs and was found not guilty. The judge found the alleged evidence of speeding unpersuasive and found client not responsible for that charge as well.
Sex Crimes
If you are facing sex offense charges in the Boston, MA area, you need to hire an attorney as soon as possible. Should you be found guilty, you could face years in prison and be required to register as a sex offender for the rest of your life. The most commonly committed sex crimes include...
Fraud
Defended client charged in wire fraud and theft of trade secrets case involving the alleged theft of next generation micro processing technology. Negotiated a plea bargain to a sentence that was a fraction of the sentencing guidelines driven by the loss value in the case alleged to be over one hundred million dollars.
Robbery
If you or somebody close to you has been accused of robbery, you will need to find the best lawyers possible to defend the case.
Burglary
White Collar Crimes
Crimes committed by people in positions of high power for monetary gain are serious offenses that fall into the category of White Collar Crimes. The usual perpetrators of such crimes are managers, CEOs, and other professionals in political, corporate, or business settings.
Theft
Misdemeanors
For many of these crimes, the circumstances surrounding the crime will determine if the Commonwealth will charge you with a misdemeanor or a felony and how much jail time you could face if convicted. As an example, Breaking and Entering charges require that the Commonwealth prove the following...
Embezzlement
Claudia Lagos is a rising star in Massachusetts criminal defense. She has successfully defended hundreds of clients accused of crimes including, but not limited to, drug transactions, hate crimes, failure to register as a sex offender, sex for fee, operating under the influence, various motor vehicle offenses, larceny, fraud, assault and battery, violations of restraining orders, and embezzlement. Attorney Lagos has consistently delivered the best results for her clients throughout every stage of her representation: from investigations, to clerk’s magistrate hearings, to trials, to probation hearings, to appeals and other post-conviction remedies.
Drug Crimes
The war on drugs has been a national failure since the beginning. National and state legislatures have given in to law enforcement and the moral majority to over-criminalize drug offenses for decades. Even for small amounts of drugs people can be facing school zone offenses, lengthy mandatory minimum sentences and ridiculous collateral consequences.
Assault
Client’s neighbors called 911 after hearing a domestic argument between husband and wife taking place outside of Client’s Scituate home. When police arrived, they saw husband cut and bleeding under his eye. Client admitted to police that she had punched husband in the face. Husband’s injuries were photographed by police. Client was arrested and charged the next day in Hingham District Court with Assault and Battery on a Family Household Matter. These charges are prosecuted aggressively throughout the Commonwealth as a matter of public policy. However, Scully & Lagos were able to persuade prosecutors to dispose of the matter based on pretrial probation- a disposition which results in a complete dismissal of the charges with no admission of wrongdoing form the client.
Murder
Scully & Lagos defend all of their murder cases as a team, with Attorney Scully as lead trial counsel and Attorney Lagos assisting as second chair. They combine skills to make a formidable team determined to fight every aspect of the cases against their clients.
Identity Theft
Scully & Lagos have the combined skill and experience you will need by your side if you find yourself in the unfortunate circumstances of facing charges in federal court. Over the past 18 years Attorney Liam Scully has defended over 100 federal criminal cases which have included allegations of racketeering, fraud, drug offenses, firearms violations, bank robbery, identity theft, and many other federal crimes. Along with Attorney Claudia Lagos, a Super Lawyers rising star, they will give you the best defense possible to your case. Whether you have been, or are a target of an investigation, a grand jury witness, or a criminal defendant, Scully & Lagos can help.
Homicide
Attorney Liam Scully has been defending clients charged with Murder, Manslaughter and Homicide in state courts throughout Massachusetts throughout his career. He has compiled an impressive track record of success including not guilty verdicts and dismissals. Depending on the circumstances involved, the prosecution could charge you with one of the following...
Arson
Shoplifting
Restraining Order
It’s a shame if this sounds familiar: Your spouse or now ex significant other decides they want out. The next thing you know, you are being falsely accused of an assault, a restraining order is being applied for and you are on your way to being thrown out of your own home and denied the right to see your own children.
Forgery
Money Laundering
Kidnapping
Kidnapping usually happens when a child under the age of 16 is taken from his or her home without the permission of the custodial parent. However, taking any one of any age against his or her will is also kidnapping. This is a very serious, felony charge.
Manslaughter
On March 27, 2016, client’s family had what was supposed to be a family party at a home in Mattapan. The party started out peacefully, but was attended by a few unknown guests who became drunk and unruly. Eventually these guests were asked to leave the party because of their behavior. One of them became defiant and insulting instead of leaving peacefully. This lead to a fist fight outside, which escalated further when the alleged victim pulled out a knife and stabbed the person he was fighting with. This lead to further escalation as our Client and many people from the party confronted the knife wielding man. Some people armed themselves with sticks. The knife wielding man eventually stabbed a second person. Then someone shot the knife wielding man with a.32 caliber pistol. As a he dropped to the ground, a number of the people who had been fighting with the man continued to hit, kick and strike him. He died on the spot. The cause of death was determined to be gunshot wounds, but the medical examiner testified that the beating he took after being shot could have sped up the dying process and made it less likely he could be saved by the EMTs who arrived shortly after. Some of the altercation was caught on video, including a segment of our Client kicking the man in the head after he had been shot. This led the Suffolk County District Attorney’s office to seek and obtain an indictment for murder under the theory of Joint Venture. The trial in this case took four weeks, involved over 30 witnesses and included over 250 exhibits. The jury acquitted our Client after 4 days of deliberations, finding that although he did participate in the beating of the knife wielding man, he did not do so with the required intent to sustain a conviction for murder or even the lesser included offense of manslaughter. Accordingly, he received a sentence of 2.5 years in the house of correction.
