NEW JERSEY AUTO-RELATED OFFENSES ATTORNEY

 

Crimes and motor vehicle offenses associated with alcohol or drugs are among the most prevalent and serious situations where a person needs a skilled criminal lawyer.

Drunk Driving Charges

NEW JERSEY AUTO-RELATED OFFENSES ATTORNEY

It usually starts with police lights in your rearview mirror. You’re going home after a dinner or party. You’ve had a drink or two. You think to yourself, “I’m okay” as a police officer walks up to your window. “Good evening, license and registration please.” Then it begins. “You’ve been drinking. Please step out of the car.” Flashing lights — confusing instructions — balance tests on a dark roadway. All you remember is — “Put your hands behind your back. You’re under arrest for drunk driving.” And the nightmare continues.

Before the evening is over, you are taken in handcuffs into a police station. You’re required to take a breath test to measure your blood alcohol concentration. Exhausted and humiliated, you are charged with drunk driving.

You now face stiff fines, driver’s license loss, and in some situations, jail. You need to be represented in one of New Jersey’s 535 municipal courts. Your defense requires proper legal motions, defenses, and preparation to cross-examine an arresting officer and a breath machine operator. All before a single judge — never a jury!

Assault by Auto and Vehicular Homicide Charges

There’s another scenario… with even more dire consequences. You’ve just had a car accident. You’re hurt and dazed. You see police and emergency medical personnel. You overhear someone say, “The guy in the other car is hurt badly,”…or worse yet, “The other guy’s not going to make it.” And then you hear someone accuse you of being drunk.

Police take you to a hospital for a blood test to measure your alcohol concentration. You are arrested for NEW JERSEY AUTO-RELATED OFFENSES ATTORNEYassault by auto… or worse yet, vehicular homicide. This isn’t just a drunken driving case in a municipal court. Auto assault and vehicular homicides are crimes brought against you in the State Superior Court. License loss is the least of your problems. You now face a long state prison sentence.

In both cases, you need help.
