Practice Areas: Criminal Defense , Traffic Violations, Appeals

SPECIALIZING IN POST-CONVICTION RELIEF (PCR); APPEALS; MOTIONS FOR RECONSIDERATION OF THE SENTENCE IMPOSED; MEGAN'S LAW TIERING; & EXPUNGEMENTS. I practice throughout the State of New Jersey, and I have been involved with the field of criminal law for over forty-five years. I have proven my expertise, knowledge and commitment to defending those charged with crimes repeatedly, representing a large and significant number of client’s at trial through to a verdict; testing my trial skills; my knowledge of the law, court rules and trial procedure. I have handled many cases where the client comes to me after they are convicted, asking me to challenge their conviction or sentence by filing a post-conviction reflief (PCR) petition, an appeal, or a motion for the Court to reconsider the sentence that was imposed. I have also represented a large number of clients challenging the Megan's Law Tier the State wants to put them in, and I have represented numerous clients who are trying to get their criminal record expunged. I focus my defense efforts on clients charged with violating the criminal law of the State of New Jersey. Among the types of cases I have personally handled are cases involving Racketeering; Murder; Kidnapping; Medical Claims Fraud; Official Misconduct; Leader of Drug Trafficking Network; Robbery; Carjacking; Insurance Fraud; Rape and Sexual Assault; Perjury; and most of the other types of crimes charged in the criminal code. Before becoming a Criminal Defense Attorney, I was an Assistant Essex County (N.J.) Prosecutor for fifteen years; and, before that I was a police officer for ten years. During those times and now as a defense lawyer, I handled cases using every type of investigation used by the police, to include wiretapping, eavesdropping and other types of electronic surveillance; buy-bust and sting operations; undercover police investigations; and, more traditional investigation activities such as field investigation and witness interview. My decades of experience handling difficult cases and issues in the field of criminal law, provides me with a firm foundation to handle the emotionally charged atmosphere that permeates every type of criminal case. The emotions of all parties run hot, and I counter-balance the emotionally charged atmosphere of these cases by using my extensive trial and courtroom experience to protect my client's interests. Knowing what a Judge or a Prosecutor will think in regards to a particular argument allows me to vigorously advocate on behalf of my client. Whether I am negotiating with my adversary or advocating before the Judge, they know I am more than able to handle a trial on the merits; and, that I am not afraid to push the case to the appellate courts if that is what it takes to protect the interests of my client. Among the types of Criminal Defense cases that I have frequently represented clients on include: Adult Criminal Defense and Appeals; Juvenile Defense and Waiver; International and Interstate Extradition; DWI / DUI Defense; Traffic Violations; CDL Violations; Municipal Court Defense; Municipal Appeals; Motor Vehicle Commission Hearings; Arraignments and Detention Hearings; Probation Violations; Parole Violations; ISP Applications; Record Expungement; Post-Conviction Relief Applications; Domestic Violence Charges; and TRO / FRO  Restraining Orders.

Sometime in the summer of 2006, I was driving a patrol car through the streets of East Orange New Jersey, when it occurred to me that this work was not my passion in life. It shared many of the same functions, such as being able to stick up for the little guy, and finding creative solutions to complex problems. But something was missing so in the intervening years I pursued a career in law. I attended law school during the day while working as a police officer at night.. I have written thousands of tickets and made hundreds of arrests, so I know all the tricks and where all the weak spots are. Officers are humans, so, sometimes they take shortcuts and these are ripe to be exploited by a knowledgeable and diligent attorney.
