Employment Law
Employment law encompasses a multitude of subjects including but not limited to, wrongful termination, unemployment issues, improper discipline, workers' compensation
matters, Civil Service and labor contractual obligations.
Discrimination
Issues of discrimination cover areas including but not limited to, sexual harassment, disabilities, age, gender and sexual orientation. While evidence of unlawful activities can be obvious, it is also sometimes very subtle and difficult to detect or prove. This requires an attorney knowledgeable in complex and difficult investigations that are often needed to get to the facts.
Consumer Law
Massachusetts provides a multitude of safeguards for consumers that are designed to protect consumers from unfair or deceptive business practices. Massachusetts Consumer Protection law, Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 93A, is a powerful statute, often overlooked by victims of deceptive business practices.
Divorce/Family Law
Family law, including divorce, child custody, and the division of assets, really requires the attorney to not only represent and advise the client on their legal rights, but also to help the individual through one of the most stressful experiences in life.
Personal Injury
Motor vehicle crashes can cause tremendous injuries, and unfortunately, death. These matters require an attorney who understands both the legal complexities and the scientific analysis necessary to understand the events causing the injury. Attorney Horn, a qualified collision reconstructionist, has 30 years of public service investigating motor vehicle collisions and scientific analysis of such events.
Real Estate/Contract Law
Contract law is one of the most important preventative areas of law, and is often overlooked or not properly applied. Failure to properly understand the expectations of the parties on all sides of an agreement can be very costly.
Criminal Law
If you or your loved one has been arrested for a crime or is about to be charged with a crime, you are facing one of the toughest situations of your lifetime. These situations require immediate professional representation to ensure protection of your rights, and a fair resolution to the matter.
Mediation Services
Mediation can often be a valuable alternative to litigation as it gives the parties the ability to truly shape the resolution to the conflict in a way that is more predictable, and often at a fraction of the cost of litigation. Attorney Horn is certified as a Mediator in accordance with SJC Rule 1:18
Municipal Law
Cities and towns require competent counsel in a variety of areas of municipal law, including matters such as legal process, liability exposure, organized labor, Civil Service, workplace harassment, unemployment and municipal finances. Attorney Horn has more than 30 years of municipal service in public safety. He has two years as a Town Coordinator, bringing a unique perspective to town counsel work.
