Attleboro District Court


The Attleboro District Court serves a Bristol County corridor along the Rhode Island border and I-95, and its docket carries the concert cases from the Xfinity Center in nearby Mansfield alongside the motor vehicle matters an interstate border produces, many against out-of-state defendants. The Bristol County District Attorney’s Office prosecutes here, and Attorney Joe Serpa prepares each case as a matter to be ended at the earliest stage.

Some of the strongest defenses end a case entirely rather than settling it. Our companion page explains how criminal cases get dismissed in the Massachusetts district and municipal courts.

Location and Access. The Attleboro District Court, 88 North Main St., Attleboro, MA 02703, sits near I-95 and Route 1. The court’s phone is (508) 222-5900.

Communities Served. Attleboro, Mansfield, North Attleboro, and Norton.

Concert and Event Cases. The Xfinity Center in Mansfield draws large summer crowds, and the resulting OUI, disorderly, trespass, and alcohol matters, many against out-of-state concertgoers, are exactly the kind of case the clerk-magistrate hearing can end quietly, with counsel appearing so the client does not return to Massachusetts for the hearing.

Motor Vehicle and Border Cases. The I-95 corridor to Providence feeds a motor vehicle docket, much of it against Rhode Island drivers, with the four-day citation rule governing the cases that begin without an arrest. The court also carries the domestic violence, drug, and theft calendars of a suburban court.

Mr. Serpa was very helpful with my family member ‘s case. He was able to get it dismissed quickly and easily. He is very professional and very good at what he does. I’m so glad he hired him. You will be glad too if you hire him.

Serpa law office was my attorney of choice for 2 seperate cases I had last year. With both situations, Joseph not only treated me great, delivered the results I was hoping for, and was extremely professional and genuine. I would definitely recommend this law office to anyone in need of legal help.

Cross-Examining an Absent Accuser: Excited Utterances, Spontaneous Utterances, and Section 806 in a Massachusetts Domestic Violence Trial

Some of the hardest fought Massachusetts domestic violence cases I try are the ones where the accuser never takes the stand. The person who called 911 recants, refuses to appear, or has reconciled and wants the case gone. The Commonwealth does not always drop those cases. It tries to prove them through the recording and…

On April 15, 2026, the Supreme Judicial Court decided Commonwealth v.
