About

Rob McCarthy, Attorney at Law

I'm Rob McCarthy, a Boston College and law school graduate, and I've been an attorney for over twenty-five years. Starting off as a litigator in the United States Marine Corps, I was trained at the Naval War College in the Naval Justice School, Newport, RI. Before Naval Justice School, I trained as a Marine Corps infantry officer at the Basic School and Officers Candidate School, both in Quantico, VA. While in the Marine Corps I prosecuted criminal cases for the United States, defended Marines in courts martial and represented Marines before military administrative panels.

After being honorably discharged from the Marine Corps, I was recalled to active duty to serve the United States in Operation Desert Storm.  Staying in the Marine Corps Reserve a number of years after Operation Desert Storm, I was eventually honorably discharged after having been promoted to the rank of Major. During this time, I was also engaged in the private practice of law in the Boston area. I've appeared many thousands of times in various courts from district courts up to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court.

In addition to being a licensed attorney, I'm a social media strategist and entrepreneur. Recently I was a candidate for the United States Congress.

When a person hires me as their attorney, they get much more than an attorney.  They get a someone who takes their problem, issue or project and shares it as his own.  Your problem, issue or project becomes my concern.  Many times I'll stay awake at night thinking about your case and how it can best be handled. That's just the way I am.  It's not a marketing ploy.  It's my personality.  I live through your case with you and if there is a burden, the problem is also placed on my shoulders. I'll care about your matter as much as you do.  You won't be alone or forgotten.  You won't be a number. You'll be a valued client.  I take every legal matter seriously so I will not take on a lot of projects at the same time and I'll only take cases where you feel comfortable with my style of practicing law and I am comfortable working with you. So lets sit down and talk  first.
