Criminal Offenses in New Jersey
Bhatt Law Group has been representing people throughout New Jersey for over a decade. We know that being charged with a crime can be devastating. You may be worried about criminal penalties as well as how this will affect your future. You don’t have to deal with this situation alone. We can help.
Types of criminal offenses we handle include:
- DUI Offenses Although DUI offenses in New Jersey are dealt with under the motor vehicle code as opposed to the state criminal code, penalties can be harsh. You may be facing large monetary fines, driver’s license suspension, and even incarceration. Whether it’s your first DUI or you’ve had multiple, you need a seasoned defense attorney on your side.
- Drug Charges New Jersey is strict on drugs. Consequences range from probation to serious time in prison. Don’t gamble on your future. Contact an experienced criminal defense attorney with Bhatt Law Group to find out how we can help you.
- Assault Charges Violent crimes can lead to serious criminal penalties. If you are being accused of assault, battery, or a similar crime, contact us today so that we can begin creating your defense strategy.
- Theft Charges Theft can result in both criminal and civil penalties. The degree of charge depends on the amount stolen, whether a weapon was used, and other specific circumstances of the crime. We will compassionately listen to your side of the story and make sure the prosecutors, the judge, and the jury hear it as well.
- Burglary Charges Stealing from a residence or other structure can result in serious penalties because of the potential risk to any people inside. If you’ve been charged with burglary, you need a knowledgeable Jersey City criminal attorney to represent your rights in court.
- Harassment Charges Although harassment is typically a low-level (de minimis) infraction, the specific circumstances of the crime can result in severe penalties. If you’re being charged with harassment or a related crime, contact an experienced criminal defense attorney who will make sure your rights are respected throughout the investigation and justice process.
- Property Crimes Allegations involving criminal behavior on someone’s property can be disturbing for victims as well as the person being accused. Bhatt Law Group has represented countless people who have been charged with arson, vandalism, trespassing, and related crimes. Contact us today to find out how we can help you.
- Traffic Offenses Traffic tickets, which are dealt with under the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Code, can have harsh consequences. Although not considered “crimes,” they can still result in large monetary fines and other penalties. We will help you navigate the complex legal system so you can move past a traffic offense.
- Public Nuisance Crimes Public nuisance crimes are those that have an impact on the general public or take place in a public place. If you’ve been charged with disorderly conduct, public intoxication, public urination, disturbing the peace, or another public nuisance, contact us to defend your rights today.
