He has represented clients at every stage of litigation. Attorney Lemasa regularly lectures at various legal seminars, providing trial and courtroom training to fellow lawyers.
After graduating from Northeastern University’s College of Criminal Justice in 1998, he went on to Suffolk Law in Boston, where he focused his studies primarily on criminal law and procedure.
