Steve Spelman is an experienced trial attorney who represents corporations, corporate officers and directors, and other individuals in criminal, civil, and regulatory investigations, as well as in criminal prosecutions, complex civil litigation, and administrative enforcement actions. As a prosecutor in the Homicide Unit of the Hampden County District Attorney's Office, Steve tried more than 100 jury cases involving major felonies. Stephen has also tried civil cases in Federal Court and New York state court. His extensive experience in complex civil and criminal litigation began when he started his practice of law with the firm of Davis Polk & Wardwell in New York City. Stephen served as a Colonel in the Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG) of the U.S. Army Reserve. He was the first-ever Army Reservist to serve as the top criminal defense attorney for the United States Army, while mobilized as Chief of the U.S. Army Trial Defense Service, supervising the defense of Army court-martial cases worldwide. He also served two tours of duty in Iraq, one with Army Special Forces, the other as the senior military officer at the Law and Order Task Force established by General David Petraeus. Steve began his military career by enlisting in the Army as a Private. The Spelman family has lived in Hampden County for more than 250 years, contributing to the community by serving as attorneys, teachers, farmers, and business owners. Steve has continued that tradition through his service on various community boards and church committees.
