HUNTERDON COUNTY NJ CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEYS

If you’re facing criminal charges in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, the skilled attorneys at the Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall are here to assist you. Our legal team knows New Jersey criminal law inside and out because our law firm’s nine attorneys have worked both sides of the aisle: They’ve served as prosecutors and as public defenders in courtrooms across the Garden State. We not only understand how New Jersey’s criminal law is applied to criminal cases in court — we know how to negotiate in your best interest before we even get there.

Our legal team has seen thousands of cases over the years, and we know all too well how insufficient legal representation can forever change the course of a person’s life. Many New Jersey defendants agree to a plea or are found guilty and receive a harsh sentence, even though circumstances might have indicated the need for a lesser charge or mitigated sentence. That doesn’t have to happen to you.

At the Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall, we believe in providing each defendant with a vigorous legal defense and ensuring that prosecutors honor their obligation to meet the burden of proof. That is why we will question a case’s facts at each turn and won’t hesitate to use all of our resources to examine evidence and develop the best possible defense strategy for you.

RESPECTED CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEYS IN HUNTERDON COUNTY

Dealing with the New Jersey criminal justice system is a new experience for many of the people we’ve met in Flemington, Clinton, Lambertville, Raritan, High Bridge, Lebanon, and other boroughs, townships, and cities across Hunterdon County. Whether in Readington Township, Pottersville, or the county’s roughly two dozen other municipalities, our potential clients are understandably nervous about what lies ahead, from possibly losing their freedom to jeopardizing their family’s livelihood.

Our defense attorneys in Hunterdon County will fight to protect your rights by exposing every bit of weakness in the prosecution’s case — and negotiating when necessary for downgraded charges, a lighter sentence, or a diversion program, particularly if you have no criminal record or could benefit from treatment instead of punishment.

In each case we handle, our attorneys draw from their 100 years of combined experience with New Jersey criminal law to craft strong defense strategies and thoughtful advice. Perhaps best of all, the prosecutors of Hunterdon County know our law firm well and listen when we propose diversion or alternative charges or sentencing. They have seen how hard we work for our clients here in Hunterdon County and elsewhere around the state.

Our primary concern is obtaining the best possible outcome for you. We will always keep your needs in mind as we build your defense, update you about your case, and advise you about any long-term considerations. We will also help you evaluate the pros and cons of any potential plea deal or a program such as Conditional Discharge probation, Drug Court, or Pre-Trial Intervention (PTI).

WE ARE HUNTERDON COUNTY DEFENSE ATTORNEYS

Located in the western part of New Jersey, Hunterdon County has more than 25 municipalities that the attorneys at the Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall are proud to serve. Our skilled lawyers draw upon a wealth of legal knowledge honed over decades in New Jersey’s courtrooms, plus the resources and local perspective needed to represent our clients tenaciously.

New Jersey uses the terms “disorderly persons offenses” or “petty disorderly persons offenses” for minor legal violations, which appear before judges in municipal courts. “Indictable offenses,” or more serious charges, are heard in the county superior court where they originated. The United States District Court for the District of New Jersey has courtrooms in Camden, Trenton, and Newark to handle federal cases.

HUNTERDON COUNTY COURTS

New Jersey’s municipal courts are limited to handling minor criminal offenses, municipal ordinance violations, motor vehicle and parking tickets, and the like. Sometimes serious criminal offenses such as robbery, assault, or auto theft will first be filed in municipal court before being transferred to superior court.
