The Importance of Having Legal Representation in Municipal Court
Even minor criminal accusations in New Jersey can lead to considerable penalties, including jail time, probation, and substantial fines. Furthermore, a criminal record resulting from a conviction can impact your life for years to come. This underscores the need for seasoned legal representation when appearing in municipal court. A lawyer with specific experience in NJ municipal courts can significantly decrease the likelihood of facing the harshest penalties. They can negotiate with prosecutors and judges to get you lighter penalties, reduced charges, or even have charges dismissed altogether. If you qualify for a diversionary program such as Pre-Trial Intervention or Conditional Discharge, a knowledgeable attorney can also streamline your application process to maximize the chances of acceptance into the program.
