Why Hire an Attorney for Municipal Court Cases?

While you're allowed to represent yourself in municipal court, doing so is generally not a wise decision. Even minor offenses in New Jersey can have significant consequences, such as heavy fines, jail sentences, and a lasting criminal record that could limit future opportunities. Enlisting a skilled attorney can make a significant difference in your case and help you avoid the worst outcomes. The Lento Law Firm's attorneys can uncover crucial evidence to exonerate you, negotiate for reduced charges or penalties, or even seek a dismissal of charges. Additionally, your attorney can help you explore alternatives to avoid a criminal record, such as Pre-Trial Intervention or Conditional Discharge programs.
