HIS MISSION Attorney Couture believes in the Judiciary. He has made it his mission to uphold the law for his clients in courtrooms across the Commonwealth. It is his duty as a barred attorney to not allow corruption and cronyism to influence the mechanics of the legal system. HIS PROMISE TO THE PEOPLE Attorney Couture understands that anyone facing legal issues deserves a fair and just legal system that serves all citizens of the Commonwealth, and that starts with appointing fair and just judges who are not influenced by money, connections or political gain. Attorney Couture is the watchdog District 7 deserves.[2] |
