Why Hiring an Attorney for Municipal Court Is Critical

Opting to represent yourself at Sea Girt Municipal Court without legal representation may jeopardize your rights and freedom. Although municipal courts handle primarily minor offenses, any conviction in New Jersey could lead to severe consequences, including jail time, fines, probation, and a long-lasting criminal record. By hiring a New Jersey criminal defense lawyer familiar with municipal court workings, you can significantly mitigate the risks of such outcomes. The Lento Law Firm's Criminal Defense Team can negotiate with prosecutors and judges to lessen penalties, reduce charges, and, in some instances, secure a full dismissal.
