Woburn Criminal Defense Lawyer

Winn Law, P.C. is based at 400 TradeCenter, Suite 5900, Woburn, MA 01801. Patrick Winn represents clients in Woburn District Court and Middlesex Superior Court, as well as other courts throughout Massachusetts. A charge may appear routine on a docket while carrying serious consequences for the person accused. Patrick takes the time to understand those consequences and the evidence behind the allegation.

What to do with a summons or hearing notice

Have the complaint, summons, or hearing notice available when you call. Patrick can discuss the stage of the case, the next appearance, and how representation may help. His guide to misdemeanor cases in Woburn District Court explains the process from the initial appearance through pretrial proceedings and trial.

Clerk-magistrate hearings in Woburn

A show-cause hearing can offer an opportunity to address an allegation before a criminal complaint issues. Patrick reviews the proposed charges, identifies weaknesses in the evidence, and presents reasons why a complaint should not issue.

OUI, domestic violence, and other criminal charges

Patrick handles misdemeanor and felony defense, including OUI, motor vehicle offenses, domestic violence, assault, drug offenses, sex crimes, theft, and probation violations. His practice also includes restraining order defense, criminal record sealing, and Sex Offender Registry Board matters. He evaluates each matter independently rather than treating a charge label as a complete account of what happened.

Investigation, motions, and trial preparation

As a former prosecutor, Patrick understands how cases are developed and presented. His defense work examines available recordings, statements, witness accounts, identification evidence, and constitutional issues. He explains the strengths and weaknesses of the case before discussing a negotiated resolution or trial. See the firm’s courtroom victories for examples of the work; past outcomes do not determine the result of another case.
