THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY
Attorney Sean J. Gallagher
Attorney Gallagher graduated from Assumption College with honors. He matriculated at Rutgers School of Law, where he received his J.D. and earned an A+ in criminal law. After law school, Attorney Gallagher returned to Massachusetts and began his career as an Assistant District Attorney in the Worcester District Attorney’s office. In that capacity, he tried an array of cases and argued several appeals in the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court and Appeals Court. After six years as a prosecutor, Attorney Gallagher opened his own shop.

As an appellate attorney, Attorney Gallagher practices in the Massachusetts Appeals Court and the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court.
A defense attorney must fight for the underdog
A person charged with a crime is almost always an underdog – for, from beginning to end, the great power of the State is brought to bear against him or her. The playing field ultimately becomes even when the charges against the defendant are tried to a jury. There and then the power of the State wanes, as the defendant’s fate comes to rest in the hands of a jury – women and men chosen from the community with no motivation other than to do their level best “to get it right;” that is, to return a verdict of not guilty, unless the Commonwealth has proven its case beyond a reasonable doubt.
YOUR LIFE
Being charged with a crime – no matter what the crime – is a jarring, life changing experience. Attorney Gallagher understands this in full and is wholly dedicated to your defense and to serving your best interests.
