We obtained a recovery in excess of $220,000.00 on behalf of a minor sexually assaulted by a police officer managing a New Jersey town’s Explorer program while she was involved in a charitable organization activity, with all defendants asserting legal immunity from civil prosecution; a settlement of $100,000.00 for a pedestrian hit by an automobile; a settlement of $50,000.00 for a motorcyclist who broke his finger when a car made a sudden left turn in front of him; a settlement in excess of $60,000.00 for a woman rear-ended at a stop light, and a settlement of $22,500.00 for a women involved in a car accident.

The Law Office’s Municipal Court practice is extensive, defending clients charged with traffic offenses, including Driving While Intoxicated, driving without proper documentation, driving on the suspended list or without proof of insurance, careless driving, speeding and all other motor vehicle violations. We defend other offenses including shoplifting, theft, domestic violence, assault, housing violations and other charges heard in the Municipal Courts throughout New Jersey. In our Criminal Law practice we defend individuals against more serious charges, which we handle from bail reduction hearings through the intensive discovery required to obtain a plea or put the State to it’s burden of proving all elements of the alleged offense beyond a reasonable doubt at trial. The Law Office prides itself on juvenile rehabilitation, working with minors and young adults to insure that lifelong repercussions from a bad decision, or a bad set of circumstances, are minimized.
