Criminal Defense

Game Changing Tactics

Erkan & Sullivan, PC handles only one type of case: criminal defense.  We specialize in this one thing, because it is only with that singular focus that a lawyer can provide a truly game-changing defense. If you or a family member has been charged with or accused of a crime, we can help. 

Attorneys Erkan and Sullivan are both former prosecutors with decades of combined experience handling every type of criminal case.   We are students of the law, always remaining up-to-date on the new changes in criminal law and the ever-changing strategies that Massachusetts prosecutors use to deny people their freedom. Having lawyers that know how the government builds a case – and more importantly, how to take that case apart – makes all the difference in the world.

Whether it is battling with prosecutors in the courtroom or negotiating with the police to prevent charges from ever issuing, our team will have your back from the moment you are accused – and every step afterwards.

Our philosophy is to build an uncompromising defense tailored to your specific case and your specific needs.  There are no cookie-cutter strategies here.  Beginning with our first consultation, we will discuss what you are (or could be) charged with, an assessment of likely defense strategies, and a timeline for how the case will develop. Attorneys Erkan and Sullivan’s experience and innovative strategies have led to an astonishing number of cases being dismissed, findings of not guilty, and other favorable results.

Experienced Criminal Defenses Attorney on Your Side

Representing clients during investigations, before the grand jury, at arraignment, through trial, and on appeal, our team provides unparalleled representation. This is because we have spent our careers handling only criminal cases, focusing our entire practice on becoming the best in the field.

We have represented hundreds of people who have been accused of crimes in Massachusetts. We routinely achieve not guilty verdicts at trial, succeed in securing pretrial dismissal, convince judges to throw out or suppress evidence against our clients, and prevent our clients from ever being charged in the first place. 

You need lawyers who are not afraid to fight.  Who think innovatively and strategically.  Who will listen to you, understand you, and care about what happens to you. We are committed to achieving the best results possible.  We will help you get your life back.

Attorneys Who Are Not Afraid to Fight for You

Far too many cases end up pleading because the lawyer lacks the guts to fight the case to the end.   A criminal trial is not for the faint of heart; the jury trial is the modern-day gladiatorial arena.  Attorneys Erkan and Sullivan thrive in that arena.  They enter it without fear, because they have honed their skills and are accustomed to winning.  Because our opponents know we will never compromise, many times the prosecution will fold on the trial date, dismissing the case before it even starts.  

Every case is different and every client has a different set of goals for their cases. But one thing every case has in common is that the choice of attorney will, more often than not, make or break your case.  Don’t leave your future to chance.  Erkan and Sullivan will defend you without compromise.
