Comprehensive Defense Against Criminal Charges in New Jersey

Because every case is unique and may involve multiple charges, Peyrouton Law provides personalized defense to every client. We represent individuals accused of a wide variety of criminal offenses, including:

New Jersey courts deliver severe penalties for crimes related to domestic incidents. These can range from restraining orders to indictable offenses (i.e., felony charges) with prison sentences. If you are facing criminal charges for a domestic violence crime, your best move is to remain silent and call a trusted domestic violence lawyer as soon as possible.

If you have been charged with drug possession or distribution, seeking legal representation from a qualified drug crime attorney is vital. Drug offenses can carry severe penalties, including heavy fines and mandatory minimum prison sentences. An experienced drug crime lawyer can fight to reduce or dismiss the charges against you.

New Jersey’s drunk driving laws are among the strictest in the nation, and prosecutors aggressively seek convictions for DWI/DUI offenses. If you have been charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI) or under the influence (DUI), a knowledgeable New Jersey DUI lawyer can help you understand your rights and provide guidance on how best to proceed.

A conviction for sexual assault or other sex crimes can have lasting and devastating consequences. Penalties include incarceration, hefty fines, and registration as a sex offender. If you’re facing criminal charges for aggravated sexual assault, statutory rape, child pornography, or another type of sex crime, contact a New Jersey sex crimes attorney immediately.

Under New Jersey law, violent crimes such as assault and battery, aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon, armed robbery, and murder carry the most severe penalties. And prosecutors often seek the harshest mandatory minimum sentences against defendants accused of such crimes. In those situations, a skilled violent crimes attorney can mean the difference between a conviction and an acquittal.

Theft and property crimes include a variety of offenses. These offenses can range from burglary and shoplifting to more sophisticated white-collar crimes such as embezzlement, insurance fraud, cybercrime, and money laundering. Regardless of the nature of the crime, an experienced theft crimes attorney can work to reduce or dismiss the charges against you.

It’s easy to think traffic tickets are no big deal. But if you’re not careful, speeding tickets, reckless driving charges, or other traffic violations can become a serious legal problem. Along with hefty fines, you could face costly insurance premium hikes, loss of your driver’s license, and even jail time. Contact an NJ traffic ticket attorney for help.

New Jersey law classifies some lower-level crimes, like simple assault, disorderly conduct, and possession of marijuana, as indictable offenses. These charges are handled in municipal court and can result in up to 6 months in jail and $1,000 in fines. A knowledgeable defense lawyer can help get the charges reduced or dismissed.

We understand that a juvenile offense can have a lasting impact on a young person’s life. Our attorneys are experts in the nuances of New Jersey juvenile law and are committed to advocating fiercely for the rights and well-being of your child. Whether it’s negotiating a favorable plea deal or fighting the charges in court, we’ll work to achieve the best possible outcome for your child.

Choosing a Trusted New Jersey Criminal Defense Lawyer

Hiring the right criminal defense attorney is one of the most important decisions you will make to protect yourself and your future. A skilled lawyer can mean the difference between a conviction and an acquittal or between a lengthy prison term and probation.

I had some issues with a first time DUI and I made the right choice by hiring Alan to have my back. The legal system can be very overwhelming but Alan took me through everything step by step and made me feel very comfortable. Very professional and always available for me on the phone. Never missed a call.
I reached out to Alan to help a friend of mine after talking with other attorneys. I felt most comfortable with him. The situation was not the greatest but the overall out come favored my friend. I highly recommend reaching out to Alan. Gave my friend a second chance in life and things are working out well.
Best lawyer in North jersey helped a bunch thanks again bud
Do not hesitate to call Attorney Alan Peyrouton and his staff. I first contacted them in February.I’m a very private person. I knew I wanted to get my case sealed but was reluctant and nervous – so I put it off. Bad move on my part! I contacted Alan again to finally get my record sealed once and for all. Alan and his staff explained everything and helped me every step of the way – now my record is sealed! They made it so easy. Looking back, I wished I followed through on this earlier. If you’re ready to get your life back, CALL HIM NOW.He never missed a beat. I can't say enough about this firm and would highly recommend them to anybody.
Alan’s professionalism should be greatly admired. He assisted my case and handled it with discretion and a level of ethics that will always be held in high regard. I can not thank him enough.
Alan is a literally a lifesaver. He did everything possible to get my situation resolved as quickly as possible. I didn't think it would even be possible to handle my situation in the time frame he did. He is a real miracle worker. Thanks Bill K.
Alan Peyrouton is an excellent lawyer. He is extremely knowledgeable, honest and patient. He was able to resolve a difficult situation quickly and with ease. I highly recommend his legal services.
The man got everything dismissed! Let’s say he took care of business! I would use again!
Best lawyer in Jersey!! If you want to win a case, this is the best Man!!! Forever thankful to Alan and his dedication !

Alan is a consummate pro. I hired him to help represent me on a delicate personal matter. First of all his initial consultation was spot on. Second of all his fees were fair and resonable. Third of all - He was extremely responsive and responsible it’s clear that he actually cares about his work and the people he represents. Finally the positive results he obtained for me. speak for themselves.
Thank you so much for your help and fast work I highly recommend it
Alan is a very good attorney.
Let me start by saying that Alan and Kevin gave me my life back. I was been charged with different charges and facing over 15 years in jail.When i first walk into their office i was scared and uncertain of what my future was going to be but thanks to these two great men i got my life back. I explained my situation and how i was falsely accused and they could see that i was telling the true. They became more than a bodyguard on my behalf. They defended me like if i was their son or a relative. Expended extended hours on my case, any other lawyer would charge a very large amount of money.They did an awesome job and i have a personal appreciation for them.The outcome of my situation was incredibly. Didn't have to go to trial even though they were more than ready, no jail time, no probation or PTI. For my career it was awesome because i have a secret clearance and anything other than a small fine would jeopardize it.I would like to thank them and If you ever need a knowledge lawyer call them they are the best.Quiesiera empesar por decir que Alan y Kevin me devolvieron mi vida. Estaba en la situation que podia ver unos 15 años en la carcel.La primera vez que entre a su officina yo tenia miedo e inseguro de lo que esperaba del futuro. Le explique mi situacion e inmediatamente se dieron cuenta que decia la verdad sobre las falsas acusaciones. En ese momento tomaron mi caso y se volvieron mas que mis guarda espalda. Pelearon por mi como si yo fuera su hijo o algun pariente. Trabajaron muchisimas horas que cualquier otro abogado me ubiera cobrado muchisimo. En este caso tenia un dos por uno. Le tengo un aprecio personal a los dos.Al final los resultados fueron sorpredientes. No tube ningun tipo de probacion o PTI. Para el trabajo que hago cualquier cargo que no sea una pequeña multa afectaria mi trabajo. Ademas tengo una segurida secreta y para aquirir ese tipo de suguridad es muy dificil.Le quiero dar las gracias a los dos y recomendarlos a cualquiera que tenga algun problema con la ley
From the very start of hiring Mr. Peyrouton to represent my son’s case in court, he reassured me that he and Samera would be available at any time if I had any questions or concerns along the way and he followed through on that. I am very satisfied with his services and the outcome of the case. He went above and beyond by also making sure there would be no legal long-term repercussions for my son. I appreciate his swift handling of the whole situation...I most definitely recommend Peyrouton Law!!
I spoke with Samira and she is the best. I can't think her enough for her time and understanding. I was so lost about this case thats hurting me and my family. I truly thank her not many will explain nor take the time without a fee. Samira if you ever become an attorney... You Are Hired 👊👍 I thank this firm for having a great person on their team.
Alan was incredible in helping me interpret and understand a real estate related business agreement that required my attention. I simply could not have done it with out him. The service was very speedy and attentive. I highly recommend Peyrouton Law for your legal needs.
I spoke with a wonderful woman named Samira she was extremely informative. Handled the matter I called her about professionally and quick. She quoted me a very reasonable price for the work their firm would have to do. I would recommend this law office for anyone looking for a good lawyer.
I am just so appreciative Peyrouton Law was able to help me through this tough time. I Am extremely satisfied and would definitely recommend them to anyone stuck in this same situation.
Samera is by far the best woman for the job. Almost immediately as I called the office she handled it very efficient and got the job done. I recommend for any tickets you have. She is very responsive and has the answers to any question you have, just in general a woman of her word and a great person overall! The process was very patient and well done.
Samera pays attention to every detail regarding your case. She was very responsive and always there with the answers to any questions you may have. Alan was very professional and knowledgeable about all aspects in regards to my simple assault case. He was always responsive to phone calls and had all the right answers. Case was dismissed in court!
During one of the hardest experiences of my family's lives I couldn't imagine having such a beautiful supportive team to handle our case! They went above and beyond. Sat on the phone and supported me in my most vulnerable moments and that's something you can't put a price on. We thank them so much!
The Peyrouton Law office has been exceedingly helpful and diligent over this past year. Would gladly recommend for anyone seeking legal assistance.
Alan and his team were professional and competent. Alan was always available to offer advice and answer any questions I had. I will recommend Peyrouton Law to friends and family in the future.
They're reassuring
I was in a terrible bind. Police officer trumped up charges, lied and frankly tried to ruin me. I was facing six charges but I knew I was not guilty of anything. Samera was very professional and knowledgeable and helped guide me along. Alan was sharp from day one and in the end, all charges were dismissed. I couldn't be any happier. Not only will I use them if I need to (Though I hope it not), I will recommend Alan to anyone I know in need of counsel. Thank you again.
We had a smooth process dealing with the courts thanks to Peyrouton Law office. They are very professional and knowledge and helped us in every step of the way. They really care for the clients and for resolving their cases. I highly recommend their services.
Amazing lawyer! He took care of everything while I was able to relax and kept me informed the entire process throughout.
Personal attention to detail anytime you callRates are reasonable and his effort is second to noneAlways professional and solid legal guidanceCan help you day or night no stone left unturned
This law firm and Samera in particular helped me out of a big jam that was actually a mistake NDMV made. NJ thought my car insurance lapsed when I moved out of state so they suspended my license which meant I could not get my car registered in my new state AND couldn't get my license updated nor could I go to dmv since I moved cross country. I answered every letter NJDMV sent me registered receipt mail with ALL the proof my vehicle NEVER had a lapse but they ignored all my correspondence. The office manager at Peyrouton Law, Samera handled everything. ONLY through her tenacity and persistence did this issue get resolved. NJDMV lifted the suspension so I could move forward where I currently live. This girl is dead on it! Thank you soo much Samera and Alan! Harry S.
So far so good....no complaints here...Very good people
I recently got into some legal trouble and was in the need of an attorney fast. Choosing a good attorney, is step 1 in achieving a favorable outcome in any case. And thankfully I made the right choice in choosing Peyrouton Law. Allan and his team are great. They set my mind at ease and they were there with me every step of the way. Allan and Samera always made themselves available for any questions or concerns I had and worked very hard to get me the best possible outcome in my case. They were very affordable and their service far exceeded the price. Thank you Peyrouton Law!
Mr. Peyrouton has been my attorney for the last ten years. He is very knowledgeable and has always been accessible. I am proud to know him and have him as my lawyer.
Super Helpful!!A few months ago my husband and I received a BOGUS! speed ticket. Came here explaining our situation long story short ! The ticket was dismissed and I would definitely recommend to anyone seeking professional help.
Recently I had a need for a criminal attorney and I hired Peyrouton Law Firm. This was a very stressful situation for me to go through however the entire time I had great service and quick response from this law firm. I received exceptional service also from Samera of their legal team/ paralegal staff.She provided me with steps of the entire process and gave me information to put me at ease. Thankfully my issue is resolved now and I am recommending them to all of my friends and family.
I had got myself into some serious trouble with criminal charges and was going to lose my awesome job because you cant have a criminal conviction on your record at my job.First I went to some jersey city lawyer who treated me horribly and tried to scare me into paying an inflated fee! my mom was with me and he was even rude to her because she has an accent.We left his office and googled more lawyersWe got really lucky when we found Alan.The guy is so awesome!He fought for me at a third of the price of the other lawyer and I was able to keep my job.He's a gentleman fighter and I totally recommend him.
Last year was such a difficult year for all of us with the rise of Covid-19 and the pandemic. Most businesses and the Courts were closed for months! If you had a legal matter pending during that time...trying to speak to a live person at the Court to get information or questions answered was nearly impossible! So I finally decided to hire an attorney to help! Alan and Samera are such an amazing team. They took my case and started working on it from day one! They constantly corresponded with the Court through fax and email to stay on top of my case. They made several calls throughout the day and did not stop until someone picked up or called back with information on my case. They always kept me updated and were always so nice to me. My case was over a year old and nothing was being done. As soon as I hired Alan, it was closed within 3 months!!! I'm speechless. Thank you both for doing such great work and for being so diligent. And the result was the icing on the cake! God bless and stay safe.
Thank you Alan for saving the day...again! Lol From criminal cases to traffic tickets to immigration issues etc...you always come through for me! And you always get the best results! I wish you more and more success! You'll always have me as a client and as a referral!
Si pudiera dar mas que 5 estrellas lo haria!! El abogado Alan es fenomenal! Es muy inteligente y amable, y no cobra mucho. Tambien habla Español. Aparte del trato con Alan, su secretaria Samera es muy linda y tambien fue muy amable, informativa y professional en ayudarme con mi caso. Ustedes son grandes socios y mejor equipo que ustedes no hay. Gracias Alan y Samera por todo
My brother-in-law's friend was arrested for a disorderly person's offense. It sounds minor, but in some states other than NJ it is known as a misdemeanor. Often this type of offense is resolved as a municipal ordinance violation, a civil matter. The defendant still must pay a substantial fine, but the criminal charge is dismissed and the defendant has no criminal record. And the municipality gets their money. But in this case Alan Peyrouton had the case dismissed. My brother-in-law's friend had no criminal record, and paid no fine ! There is no better resolution of a case for a criminal defendant than to have a case dismissed. I would recommend Alan to anyone facing any criminal charge in NJ. And so would my brother-in-law and his friend.
I rarely submit reviews but this law firm deserves 5 stars!Samera & Alan were phenomenal! They are the perfect team to help when you're desperate because they listen and care and explain things patiently and clearly.I called 4 lawyers before I found Peyrouton Law and all 4 lawyers were rude and in a rush.From day one I got VIP treatment and they charged me less than all the other lawyers wanted to charge me. Alan got my case dismissed and is the most humble lawyer I ever met.Samera is an angel and I am very grateful for all of their assistance.I strongly recommend this law firm.
Very trust worthy firm. The perfect place for legal advice!
If you’re looking for a lawyer and are reading this review, then you can stop your search right here because Alan is without a doubt the best lawyer on the market. His secretary Samera was such a genuine person and you can tell they both actually care about their clients and take each and every case like it was one of their family members cases. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Absolutely a great law firm and I will be recommending them to anyone who digs themself into a sticky situation as I did. We’re all human and they most certainly bring that to life in court and make the prosecutor and judge see that. Thank you for all you guys did I greatly appreciate it!
My name is Ms. Judy Lawrence, and I am so excited about posting my opinion of Peyroutin Law; a law firm that is owned and operated by the two most persevering people in my opinion; Mr. Alan and Ms. Cerva. With all the intricate things they have to do to get ready for court, they always received me with smiles in their voice.I was faced with my first criminal case, and my sons told me they had, in their opinion, the perfect law firm. I was sceptical, because everything was done over the phone and email, do to the Pandemic, and I needed that personal touch.I must tell you, I never felt so confident about being in such a bad situation. Ms. Cerva took the time to read my emails and respond promptly; she always kept me informed every step of the way. Its hard for me to trust anyone with such a delicate situation, that I wasn't able to meet in person. Ms.Cerva (Paralegal) took the time to speak to me on the phone when I became anxious. I felt a closeness to her.To make a long story short, because I am a writer, and I can speak volumes about how when I spoke to the Lawyer, Mr. Alan, a feeling of calm and blessed assurance came over me. He told me what to expect, he asked me what I wanted, he treated me as if he knew the very essence of who I was, and he handle himself with such professional and knowledge.Its funny because, when everything was over and done, and I received a very favorable outcome, I kind of missed them. I don't ever want to have to face such a uncomfortable situation like that again. But if I do, God forbid, I have Mr. Alan and Ms. Cerva backing me up.Thank you
Mi experiencia fue muy buena. Debo resaltar un trato muy personalizado y sobre todo la calidad profesional y humana. Se ha planteado el caso y su defensa de la manera más oportuna y efectiva. Agradezco mucho su ayuda para resolverlo de manera exitosa
Obtuvo el mejor resultado para mi caso, muy recomendado!
Not going to get into detailBut I spoke to a femaleBy the name of SameraWho really helped me see things clearer& Understand my rightsSo I could weigh my optionsAlan came in & he's what I call no nenseStraight down to businessNot Guilty when it's finishedJust wanted to publicly sayThey're the best that I've witnessedThis my 1st reviewNot somethin I'd typically doBut other ppl in my shoes would've plead out to 2Paid double the fees & the retainerSalute to them I'm not a detainerAnd I'm home wit my family rappin for strangers lol
One word for this firm OUTSTANDING!!
Outstanding is the only word that not even comes close to both Mr. Alan Peyrouton, Esq. and Office Manager/Paralegal Ms. Samera Cerva!Although the infraction could have been not only a fine plus incarceration,Mr. Alan negotiated to a fine and settlement of one- half of what was listed as the usual cash amount. Indeed, this law firm gave constant "Personal Touch," and for which there are no words in the English language which can properly convey my thoughts of appreciation.Whenever there was a question and doubt about anything, this law firm answered every question. No additional charges were attached with any telephone call and/or E-mail sent!Advice was also given how to EXPUNGE this legal issue and will continue with the Peyrouton Law Firm until records removal.One can not go wrong by selecting this Exceptional Law Firm.Exceptional Value, Personal Service, Professionalism, Etc. All: Outstanding!!Respectfully submitted,Ronald Yee- Continuing Client.
For many like myself, finding a good lawyer is a must. I was caught in a situation I shouldn't have been in, and Alan was recommended to me through a friend. I'm forever grateful to have found Alan, because most lawyers wont fight tooth and nail to make sure you get the best deal or outcome. Alan was more than patient with me and assured me he would do all he can, and he exceeded my expectations. Thank you Alan!

His the best abogado que he conocido se los recomiendo a todas personas super amable super bueno
I’m very grateful for all the hard work and effort Peyrouton Law put fourth in my case! Alan is a lawyer who cares and strives to get the best outcome for all of his clients ! He’s like a dog with a bone, he never gives up on you !During the most stressful time in my life they were there for me, fighting for me all the way. Texts to see how me and my family and to keep me informed of all overwhelming court business. I know if I didn’t have Peyrouton Law on my side I wouldn’t have found a better lawyer to help with everything like they did. Anyone who needs a help, compassion at more than reasonable law fees, you couldn’t find a better lawyer !!
Very professional ! Since I called they were very helpful and help me with the case right away , very sincere law firm , when they are talking about the case you feel like they are part of you family and want the best for you , always tells you the truth. I recommend them 100%
they are very professional and very helpful team. I got traffic ticket and to be able to reduce to 0 point and affordable fine. It was during covid time and Samera helps me a lot through phone calls and emails. Samera is very responsive and easy to approach. Alan is great and friendly. truly appreciate for all the help and patience.
Initially, I thought our case was very minor. Come to find out that our situation was actually more complicated and would have had serious consequences had Peyrouton Law not taken our case. From beginning to end, we had peace of mind working with Samera and that we were in good hands and we were taken care of every step of the way. I cannot recommend this firm highly enough. Their professionalism, competency, responsiveness and integrity clearly set them apart from other firms. If you need legal counsel, you must contact Peyrouten Law first!
I can’t say enough great things about Alan and his team at Peyrouton Law. Hiring him was the best decision I could have made in terms of representation in court. His years of experience practicing criminal law in New Jersey make him such a valuable asset to any client. He’s well aquatinted with individuals that work in the court system and he genuinely cared about my case. He took the time to get to know me and advocated on my behalf to the prosecutor and judge. If you are lucky enough to hire Alan, rest assured there are no hidden fees or additional charges for phone calls and emails. Alan and his were always available to answer any questions I had. He was upfront about the expectations of my case and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. To anyone reading this review, I strongly encourage you to hire Alan. 🙂
The office of Peyrouton Law Helped my family so much, I can't put it into words how much. The day we walked into the office we explained our situation to Alan and his associates and they took on our situation like we were family.
The Peyrouton Law firm is the place to go to if you need great representation. Extremely knowledgeable, honest and prompt. Alan and Kevin got our family through a very difficult and emotional matter quickly and with ease. The office was highly professional, responsive and compassionate. They kept us informed and advised us wisely throughout the entire process. I highly recommend this firm. Karen & Ed E.
Hey, this is Travis. Hope all is well with you guys. I just wanted to reach out and truly thank you guys for everything you did for me and my family and also believing in me at a point when I barely believed in myself. I am off the "conditional probation", and everything is over with. We have our three little beautiful girls (which The youngest just turned one a few days ago), we both have amazing jobs where we are very blessed to be making what we are making for our family, and we are in the process and about to go into contract with buying our first home (a BEAUTIFUL 400,000 dollar home).... Lizzy and myself just wanted to truly thank you guys for believing in me and doing everything you could so I can be in this amazing spot in life that my family is in. I owe a lot of this to you guys and I hope you know what you do does not go unappreciated and you guys are making a huge impact and you guys are a huge help on certain people's lives.This above was a text message that I just sent to Alan and Kevin. For anyone who is looking for AMAZING people to represent you, that will literally do anything and everything they can for you to receive the best outcome, then these are the people you want, I PROMISE you that. They literally made miracles happen on my multiple cases. Alan from day one made me promise him that I would do everything I could to better my life. I did that and in return I received the most amazing lawyers who went above and beyond for me and my family. I couldn’t of created a better pair of lawyers to represent me. If anyone is looking for great results on your case please give Alan and Kevin a shot and I promise you (because I owe a lot of my success right now to these men) that you will not be disappointed and they will do everything they can for you.
Alan and Kevin helped me avoid prison on huge drug charges. Then, they beat my DUI case. They’re the perfect combination of aggressive and humble lawyers. Fees are very reasonable and they really cared about me. I totally recommend. My lawyers for life.
MY LAWYERS FOR LIFE!!!!!Alan and Kevin are the Best!!!!!!Most genuine lawyers I’ve ever met...they were very detailed and kept me informed about the process every step of the way... These guys have a genuine passion for law and will work endlessly to ensure a favorable outcome... they treat you like family which is what everyone needs when faced with a situation...
Alan and his team have worked magic on cases and are the easiest to work with of the attorney's I know. I am impressed by how they get things done and their success with cases large and small. Always the first call I make when either I or my clients need counsel.
I was arrested for a 3rd-degree felony case. I spent 5 hours searching for a good NJ criminal defense lawyer online. Every lawyer I called was in a rush and demanded a lot of money. I didn't like how many of these lawyers talked to me either.When I discovered Peyrouton Law, I checked their reviews. Every review was perfect and I was skeptical. Nobody can be so perfect.I talked to Alan on the phone and made a free appointment to come in and see him.Alan and Kevin explained everything to me very clearly. They answered all of my questions patiently. I never felt rushed.Because of my special circumstances, they took my case for an extremely reasonable flat fee. Honestly, they treated me like a brother.Within a few weeks, they were able to get my felony case downgraded to a misdemeanor.Long story short, I ended up paying a small fine for a municipal ordinance.As a client, I only had to go to court only three times.Even though my case is over, I will continue to keep in contact with Alan and Kevin.I consider them excellent people and they've become trusted friends.If any of my friends or family members ever need a lawyer, I will just grab them by the hand and take them to see Alan and Kevin.You know, when I got arrested, I was humiliated, lost my vacation time, and lost a lot of sleep but the best part of this whole thing is that I made two great friends for life...
Words cannot describe how great full I am to Peyrouton Law group.Allan has helped my family out with sympathy and great care. He was real and upfront with us through tough times and still we found reassurance and we feel confident that Allan and his team are looking out for our best interest. I don’t ever wish for anyone to be in a tough spot but if anyone ever gets into trouble Peyrouton Law is the one place I recommend, They have been fair and honest and really I can’t thank them enough.
Alan is an excellent làwyer. He got me out of a DUI and no jail time. He won my case. David Scrudato peytrouton firm is the best law firm in NJ. Alan Kevin won my possession charge dismissed and my DUI charge dismissed. That firm is good with prices. If you want the best call the best.
Peyrouton Law was the best choice when it came to picking a team of lawyers to get me out of my legal problems. I was facing criminal charges for something I was innocent, and if I was convicted, could have seriously affected my life and career. I had multiple court appearances for different issues and each time I left pleased because it was settled in my favor. They gave me straight forward & honest answers and constantly stayed in contact with my parents & I. I can’t thank you guys enough!!!

NJ Criminal Law FAQs

Remain calm and remain silent. Don’t answer any questions until you have a lawyer present. Remember that police will use anything you say or do against you in court.

No, you don’t. You have the right to remain silent, and you should exercise that right. Politely decline to answer any questions until you have legal representation.

The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer will depend on the complexity of your case and the severity of the charges. Most criminal defense attorneys in NJ will have an hourly fee agreement; some may require a retainer fee. For more information about our legal fees and services, call Bergen County criminal defense attorney Alan Peyrouton for a free consultation at (201) 686-9538.

Most defense attorneys will answer this question with a decisive “no.” But here’s another way to look at it. If you want to increase your odds of being found guilty and receiving the harshest possible sentence in your criminal case, then representing yourself is a good idea. However, if you want the best chance of obtaining an acquittal, reduced charges, or a lesser sentence — you should hire an experienced criminal lawyer.

Penalties for criminal convictions vary widely and depend on the offense. They can include fines, probation, community service, restitution, imprisonment in a county or state correctional facility, and a criminal record. An experienced criminal defense attorney can explain the potential penalties for your criminal offense.

While most states use the terms misdemeanor and felony, New Jersey classifies offenses as either indictable offenses or disorderly persons offenses. Indictable offenses are the most serious and range from first-degree to fourth-degree offenses. Disorderly persons offenses are the least serious and include disorderly conduct, shoplifting, and simple assault.

It depends on the offense. For example, a conviction for a first-degree crime — such as murder, rape, or large-scale drug distribution — can carry sentences of up to life in prison. Lower-end disorderly person offenses, such as the simple possession of 50 grams or less of a controlled dangerous substance (CDS), are punishable by up to 6 months in prison. The penalties for most New Jersey criminal cases will fall somewhere in between. An experienced criminal defense attorney can advise you of the potential penalties for your particular case.

It depends on the facts of your case and the prosecutor’s discretion. Your criminal defense lawyer will review your options, from plea bargaining to dismissal, and advise you of the best course. In some cases, your attorney may recommend taking your case to trial if the prosecution’s case is weak.

Yes. In New Jersey, you can petition the court to have your criminal record expunged — or sealed. While each case is unique, a skilled criminal defense lawyer can help you determine whether you are eligible for an expungement and explain the process of petitioning the court.
