About Thomas J.
Thomas J. Percy studied political science and history at Boston University, earning a B.A. in 1982. He went on to law school at American University Washington College of Law and received his J.D. in 1987. Those academic steps set a clear path toward a practice tied to property and municipal matters.
His career has been a mix of private practice, business ownership and local public service. He became a senior partner at Percy Law Group, PC in 1994. A few years later, in 1997, he formed Percy Development Company, LLC and took on the role of owner. The two roles run in parallel and reflect overlapping interests in law, real estate and development.
Public service has also been part of his professional life. He holds a membership on the Taunton Zoning Board of Appeals, where he engages in local land-use decisions and zoning questions. That experience gives him a hands-on perspective on how municipal boards operate and how local rules shape development projects.
Percy has been active in continuing legal education and industry instruction. He has served as a lecturer for the Massachusetts Association of Realtors’ Board Certified Realtor CLE and for the Massachusetts Real Estate Bar Association. Those speaking roles position him as a regular contributor to conversations about real estate practice and regulation in the state.
Across his practice he works within Massachusetts. His work spans legal advice tied to property transactions, zoning and development matters, and the practical concerns that arise when projects move from concept to construction. The business he owns interacts with those same subjects from the developer’s side, creating a dual perspective that informs client counseling and transactional work.
Colleagues and clients encounter an attorney who combines courtroom and boardroom experience with a developer’s eye for feasibility. He has maintained professional memberships since 1987, reflecting long-standing engagement in the legal community.
Today he continues as senior partner at Percy Law Group, PC while operating Percy Development Company, LLC and serving on the Taunton Zoning Board of Appeals. His current practice focuses on real estate, zoning and development matters in Massachusetts.
