Three of Life's Hardest Moments.
One Firm That Handles All of Them.

Weekly Legal Podcast — No Competitor Comes Close
You Needed an Attorney Yesterday — Here Is Where to Start
Most people who call us have been sitting with their situation for longer than they should. A divorce that has turned hostile. A custody dispute that is escalating. An arrest that happened over the weekend. A business dispute that has quietly become a legal problem. Whatever brought you here, you do not have to figure out the next step alone.
The Law Offices of Anthony G. Puopolo handles family law, criminal defense, and civil litigation across Essex and Middlesex County. We appear regularly in the courts in Lowell, Woburn, Salem, and Lawrence — and we know the local procedures, the local judges, and what it takes to move your case forward.
If you are ready to talk, we are ready to listen.
Life Doesn't Sort Itself Into Practice Areas.
A restraining order becomes a criminal charge. A domestic violence allegation reshapes a custody case overnight. A business dispute arrives the same week as a divorce. Family law, criminal defense, and civil litigation intersect more often than most people expect — and having one firm that handles all three means you are never caught choosing between attorneys when everything is happening at once.
Family Law
Divorce, child custody, child support, prenuptial agreements, and parental relocation — handled with the precision these cases demand and the steadiness your family needs.
Criminal Defense
OUI charges, drug crimes, gun charges, domestic violence defense, and criminal appeals — approached with the same rigor and the same commitment to your outcome.
Civil Litigation
Contract disputes, 93A consumer protection claims, personal injury, and general civil litigation — because being wronged financially deserves the same serious representation as any other fight.
Credentials You Can Verify. Presence You Will Actually Feel.
Attorney Anthony Puopolo graduated summa cum laude from Suffolk University Law School and has been licensed to practice in Massachusetts and New Hampshire state and federal courts since 2017. Attorney Gabrielle Lis manages her own active client base and recently secured a dismissal on a significant gun charge.
What that means for you: your case is not handed off to a paralegal or left to sit. Two attorneys are paying attention.
