Biography
Joseph J. Higgins, III, specializes in the representation of persons charged with Drunk Driving in Massachusetts. He has been recognized by both The National College for DUI Defense and the DUI Defense Lawyers’ Association for his commitment to this area of the law. Mr. Higgins has also been identified by Super Lawyers Magazine as a Massachusetts “Rising Star” in DUI/DWI Defense. This distinction is limited to only 2.5 percent of attorneys in the state. A graduate of Connecticut College and Suffolk University Law School, Mr. Higgins began his legal career as an Assistant District Attorney in Plymouth County. As an ADA, he was responsible for prosecuting hundreds of Drunk Driving cases each year and gained invaluable experience by going up against some of the best defense attorneys in the state.

Mr. Higgins has now appeared in over 60 courts across Massachusetts defending charges of DUI/OUI.
