Murphy has been helping clients overcome criminal cases in Middlesex County for more than 27 years. He understands how Woburn judges and prosecutors see cases and knows how to favorable position his clients’ cases.

Getting to Court

Massachusetts criminal cases are heard in the state’s district courts. Each of the 62 Massachusetts district courts hears most misdemeanor and felony cases that arise within the court’s geographical area. For example, if you were arrested in Burlington, North Reading, Reading, Stoneham, Wilmington, Winchester, or Woburn, your case will be heard at the Woburn District Court.

The courthouse is located at:

30 Pleasant Street
Woburn, MA 01801

The phone number for the court clerk’s office is (781) 935-4000.

The courthouse offers free parking to the public. You can also take the Lowell Line of the MBTA to the Winchester Center Station. From there, you’ll need a quick taxi, Lyft or Uber ride to get to the courthouse. Alternatively, you can take Bus 134 or Bus 354 to get right to the courthouse.
