Public Corruption, Campaign Finance and Election and Ethics Law Violations

Dwyer & Collora, LLP enjoys one of the most active practices in Massachusetts representing elected and appointed public figures in connection with state and federal criminal investigations. Members of the firm's criminal practice group have represented clients in nearly every prominent state political corruption case since the early 1980s, including municipal and county officials, state senators and representatives, high-ranking legislative leaders, government employees and consultants and local, state and national lobbyists.

Dwyer & Collora, LLP also has a presence in public corruption, campaign finance, and election law cases in other jurisdictions, including involvement in the highly-publicized investigation of campaign financing practices of the Democratic National Committee.  

The firm regularly defends clients under investigation by federal and state governments and agencies or charged with violations of federal campaign finance and election laws, the Hobbs Act, conspiracy, federal mail, wire, and honest services fraud statutes and state bribery and conflict of interest laws. Its lawyers recognize that representing public figures requires not only a comprehensive knowledge of the law, but also an appreciation for our clients' reputations and approval ratings. As in all criminal and administrative matters, Dwyer & Collora, LLP strives to resolve cases involving public figures quickly, efficiently and, most importantly, before they become public. As a result, some of the firm's proudest achievements are resolutions of corruption, campaign finance and election law investigations that are never brought to light.
