New Jersey Municipal Court And Petty Disorderly Offenses

Experienced Representation in Municipal Court Prosecutions

In all of New Jersey, when you are charged with what New Jersey considers a lesser offense, you face what is known as “disorderly persons” prosecution. A disorderly persons offense is still a serious offense and can carry a sentence of up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. You want an experienced and aggressive lawyer to protect your constitutional rights.
