For more serious matters, we defend clients in New Jersey Superior Court. We handle major criminal charges including drug offenses, gun charges, aggravated assault, sex offenses, robbery, white collar crimes, and homicide cases. No matter how serious the allegations may be, each and every client deserves a strong defense and an attorney who is prepared to fight aggressively in court.
