The passion of our firm. We love defending individuals charged with criminal offenses. This firm brings both defense and prosecution experience to every matter and represents clients across the full spectrum of New Jersey criminal law. From first degree indictable offenses to municipal ordinance violations. We understand not only the law but the impact a pending charge has on an individual, a family, and a community. We want to vindicate you.
Indictable felonies and Superior Court matters. Have you been charged with a felony? This firm defends against indictable matters across the State of New Jersey. We try cases. We ensure the State is required to meet its burden. When trial is not the right outcome, we negotiate from a position of preparation, standing ready to file the motions that pressure the State and shape the result. From guns and violence, to drugs and white collar crime, we handle the full range. Call before the indictment. Time matters.
Disorderly persons and municipal court matters. A municipal court case is not a minor case. A disorderly persons offense becomes part of your record, appears on employer background checks, triggers professional license review, and can carry immigration consequences. This firm appears in municipal courts throughout New Jersey on disorderly persons and petty disorderly persons charges, criminal-related ordinance violations. Do not walk into court alone.
Pretrial motions, suppression, and collateral consequences. The strongest defense is often the one the State never gets to put on. We regularly file motions to suppress evidence and statements. We have further experience with motions to compel discovery, motions to disclose informants and surveillance locations, and motions to exclude expert testimony. When the arrest itself triggers collateral consequences, pretrial detention, firearms forfeiture, immigration risk, an expungement question down the road, we handle those proceedings too. The best outcome on a criminal case is one that considers the collateral consequences and not the quickest resolution.
