MA Attorney Needed TODAY: Emergency Court Appearance + Extension Motion

I need a Massachusetts-barred business litigation attorney available to act immediately. My response deadline in a civil case is tomorrow, August 19, 2026. THE SITUATION: I and my company, Incremental Developers, LLC, are defendants in Farris et al v. Thomas et al, Essex County Superior Court (Lawrence session), Case No. 2677CV00910C, filed July 21, 2026. Plaintiffs are two individual investors claiming fraud, violation of Massachusetts G.L. c. 93A section 11 (seeking treble damages and attorney's fees), money had and received, and conversion, related to a real estate investment. They seek roughly $206,600 combined, plus a $205,000 real estate attachment on my LLC's property, which was heard on August 6, 2026 (I could not attend due to a documented family medical emergency; I filed a pro se extension request that same day). WHAT I NEED RIGHT NOW: 1. A limited appearance filed for me individually and for Incremental Developers, LLC (I understand the LLC must be represented by counsel to appear in court). 2. A short emergency motion for enlargement of time, so I have room to retain full defense counsel. I already have a complete draft of this motion. 3. Ideally, filed today via eFileMA or in person at the Lawrence courthouse before end of business tomorrow. WHAT I HAVE READY TO SEND IMMEDIATELY: the summons, the verified complaint with exhibits, the attachment motion, both subscription agreements, and organized project financial records (cost reports, HUD statement, deed, title documents, appraisal). WHAT COMES NEXT: I am also looking to retain counsel for the full defense of this matter, and would welcome a combined engagement or a warm handoff/referral if this isn't a fit for you. CONFLICT CHECK: Please let me know if you have any conflicts with: Jerrimy Farris and Matthew Andrews (plaintiffs, Texas); Alan S. Fanger, Esq. (plaintiffs' counsel, Framingham, MA); or related parties from a separate matter on the same project - Ryan Young / Interstruct, Inc. and Smith Kane, LLP. I am reachable by phone and Upwork message at any hour today and tomorrow morning. Please reach out even just to say you're available for a quick call - time is the priority here.
