Fort Lee Criminal Defense Lawyer

My clients value that I take time to really listen and understand their circumstances.

  • How will a plea affect immigration status?
  • What facts in your history will affect this case?
  • How will the specific prosecutor or judge view the facts of this case?

I know that every case is different and every defense needs to be personal. As a Bergen County criminal defense lawyer, I work together with my clients to choose the most effective defense for their unique situation, including:

  • Violent Crimes — From high profile homicide cases to assault and domestic violence, I represent people facing serious prison time for violent crimes.
  • Drug Charges — I've successfully defended clients on charges from simple possession of marijuana for personal use to multi-state drug trafficking.
  • Sex Crimes — Sexual assault cases are emotionally charged and difficult to defend. I am experienced in handling all types of sex crimes cases and will provide you with a complete defense for all charges including public lewdness and prostitution.
  • Theft Offenses — From corporate embezzlement and insurance fraud to shoplifting and writing bad checks, I defend individuals charged with theft crimes in State and Federal Courts.
  • Weapons Charge — New Jersey gun laws are very strict; it's not hard to run afoul of unlawful possession laws without even realizing it. I represent clients on permit issues as well as armed robbery and assault with a deadly weapon.
  • Juvenile Offenses — I represent youthful clients in juvenile and adult court for a wide range of crimes, from school arson and playground fighting to terrorist threats and truancy.

Drunk Driving Defense

New Jersey is not easy on drunk drivers. Drunk driving is a traffic offense that can never be expunged from your record and it’s hard to get a DWI / DUI charge dismissed. You have no right to refuse a breathalyzer test. If you've been charged with DUI / DWI in New Jersey, you need immediate legal help from a New Jersey drunk driving lawyer. I’ve achieved successful results for many clients who have faced first time or repeat DUI charges throughout New Jersey, including Fort Lee and Hackensack.

Traffic Violations Defense

Under New Jersey's traffic violation point system, every moving violation ticket you get can add points to your record with the DMV — and with your insurance company. 12 points and you're looking at a suspended license. But you can be facing seriously increased auto insurance rates before that. It’s important to fight traffic tickets and to do so immediately. As a Fort Lee and Hackensack traffic violations lawyer, I routinely defend clients against New Jersey traffic violations throughout the state.
