How a Municipal Court Defense Attorney Can Help You
If you're convicted of even a minor offense in New Jersey, you could still go to jail, have to pay fines, and be hounded for years by a criminal record. But if you have a good lawyer championing your case--especially one with specific experience in New Jersey municipal courts--those negative outcomes are much less likely. A good attorney can get you better results through numerous strategies, such as presenting a compelling defense to exonerate you, negotiating for lighter penalties or reduced charges, or even getting the charges dropped completely. If you are eligible for a diversionary program like Pre-Trial Intervention or Conditional Discharge, your attorney can coordinate your application to improve your chances of getting accepted. Upon completion, your charges are dismissed, and you can avoid a criminal record.
