Janet Hetherwick Pumphrey

The Bishop House, Lenox, MAThe Law Offices of Janet Hetherwick Pumphrey offer a specialized appellate law practice, both civil and criminal, on a state-wide basis in Massachusetts. Located in Lenox, the firm handles cases from the Berkshires to Barnstable. The firm maintains a presence in Boston, and Attorney Pumphrey travels to eastern Massachusetts for court appearances or to meet with clients regularly.

The firm is available at all stages of trial or appellate litigation. We handle post-judgment matters entirely or we can also provide litigation assistance or appellate consultation services directly to a trial attorney.

Attorney Pumphrey has a proven track record of success, having reversed judgements in several recent appeals, including two murder convictions.

Our philosophy is that success on appeal depends upon a number of factors:

  • Sophisticated legal analysis
  • Presentation of facts in a way that guides the Court to the conclusion argued
  • In-depth, meticulous legal research
  • Logical development of a coherent theme
  • Effective presentation of policy arguments
  • A writing style that is readable and lucid
  • Most importantly, the ability to persuade
