Results That Matter
We believe in transparency. Below is a selection of representative case results across our practice areas. These outcomes reflect real work done for real people in New Jersey courts.
Every case is different. The results listed here depended on the specific facts, the applicable law, and the court involved. But they show what is possible when your attorney is prepared, persistent, and knows the system.
DWI/DUI Defense
DWI Charge Dismissed — Improper Traffic Stop Our client was charged with DWI after a late-night traffic stop in [TBD] Township. We reviewed the dashcam footage and determined the officer lacked reasonable suspicion for the stop. We filed a motion to suppress. The court agreed and the charges were dismissed.
DWI Reduced to Reckless Driving A first-time offender was charged with DWI after a breathalyzer reading of [TBD]. We challenged the calibration records of the Alcotest device and negotiated a downgrade to reckless driving. Our client avoided the mandatory license suspension and ignition interlock requirement.
Refusal Charge Dismissed Our client was charged with refusal to submit to a breath test under NJ implied consent law. We demonstrated procedural errors in how the standard statement was read. The refusal charge was dismissed at the municipal court level.
Criminal Defense
Assault Charges Dropped Our client was charged with simple assault after an altercation. We obtained witness statements that contradicted the complainant's account and presented them to the prosecutor. Charges were dropped before trial.
Drug Possession — PTI Accepted A college student was charged with marijuana possession. We applied for Pre-Trial Intervention and presented our client's clean record and academic standing. PTI was granted. Upon completion, the charges were dismissed and the record was expunged.
Personal Injury
$[XXX,000] Settlement — Rear-End Car Accident Our client suffered herniated discs after being rear-ended at a Springfield intersection. The insurance company initially offered $[XX,000]. We retained medical experts, documented the full extent of the injury, and negotiated a settlement of $[XXX,000].
$[XX,000] Settlement — Slip and Fall A customer slipped on an unmarked wet floor at a Bergen County retail store, fracturing a wrist. We proved the store failed to post warning signs or clean the spill in a timely manner. The case settled for $[XX,000] before trial.
Evictions & Tenant Rights
Eviction Dismissed — Retaliatory Filing A tenant reported building code violations to the health department. The landlord filed for eviction within 30 days. We demonstrated the eviction was retaliatory under NJ Anti-Eviction Act protections. The court dismissed the eviction and the landlord was ordered to make repairs.
Eviction Dismissed — Improper Notice A landlord served a notice to quit that did not comply with NJ statutory requirements. We filed a motion to dismiss based on defective notice. The court agreed and the case was dismissed. Our client remained in their home.
Traffic Violations
Reckless Driving Downgraded to Unsafe Driving Our client was charged with reckless driving, which carries points and a potential license suspension. We negotiated a downgrade to unsafe driving — a non-point violation. Our client paid a fine and avoided points on their record.
Driving on Suspended License — Charge Dismissed Our client was unaware their license had been suspended due to an unpaid surcharge. We worked with the MVC to resolve the underlying issue and presented proof of restoration to the court. The charge was dismissed.
Family Law
Favorable Custody Arrangement A father sought joint custody of his two children during a contested divorce. We presented evidence of his active parenting role and proposed a detailed parenting plan. The court awarded joint legal and physical custody with a schedule that maximized his time with his children.
