Brien Law Group, Inc. | Criminal Defense and Personal Injury in Woonsocket, Rhode Island (h1)
Brien Law Group, Inc. is led by attorney Jon Brien, who has practiced law in Rhode Island since his admission to the bar in 2001. The firm can be reached at 401-597-5565, and its mailing address is P.O. Box 221, Woonsocket, Rhode Island 02895. Brien’s path to private practice included work as a labor attorney for the National Treasury Employees Union and as Corporate Counsel at GTECH, giving him a broad foundation in both litigation and corporate legal matters before he turned his focus to criminal defense and personal injury work.
The firm’s criminal defense practice covers DUI charges, domestic violence allegations, weapons offenses, assault and battery, breaking and entering, larceny and theft, and drug possession, along with expungement services for clients seeking to clear past convictions. Brien’s experience as a municipal prosecutor for both Central Falls and Woonsocket gives him direct insight into how local prosecutors evaluate and pursue cases, knowledge he now applies on behalf of defendants. The firm also represents clients in personal injury matters, extending its practice beyond the criminal courtroom.
Beyond his legal practice, Jon Brien’s public service record includes representing his district in the Rhode Island House of Representatives from 2006 to 2012 and serving as Vice President of the Woonsocket City Council from 2016 to 2020. That deep familiarity with the Woonsocket community and its institutions, paired with his law degree from New York Law School and MBA from Suffolk University’s Frank Sawyer School of Management, informs a practice grounded in local knowledge and hands-on courtroom experience.
