Why You Should Hire an Attorney in Municipal Court

Many people mistakenly believe that minor offenses result in minor penalties. The reality in New Jersey is that even minor disorderly persons offenses can result in jail time, fines, probation, and a damaging criminal record--especially if you appear on your own behalf without proper legal representation. A criminal defense attorney who is familiar with New Jersey's municipal courts can help you get a more favorable outcome by negotiating for reduced charges or penalties or even working to get the charges completely dropped. If you are eligible for a diversionary program such as Pre-Trial Intervention and Conditional Discharge (which can help you avoid a criminal history), a skilled lawyer can also help coordinate your application for the best chances of acceptance.
