Some of the claims we can help you with:

Assault Offenses
In New Jersey, an assault occurs when a person injures or attempts to injure another person without legal justification. Assault can be charged as either a simple assault or an aggravated assault.

Disorderly Conduct
In New Jersey, laws against disorderly conduct criminalize a variety of disruptive or undesirable behaviors, everything from fighting to blocking a road, and from picketing a funeral to falsely reporting a fire. What all of these acts have in common is that they are likely to upset, anger, or annoy others.

Fake ID’s
Falsifying government documents in New Jersey is a crime. Identity theft occurs when you obtain, possess, or use someone else’s information with the intent to later fraudulently use that information to your benefit.

Resisting Arrest
Under New Jersey’s resisting arrest law, a person is guilty when he or she purposely prevents a law enforcement officer from effecting a lawful arrest.

Theft Charges
New Jersey criminal statutes define theft as the “unlawful taking” or “exercising of control” over someone else’s property. The offender must act with the intent to deprive the owner of the property.

Underage Drinking
Laws in New Jersey expressly prohibit an underage person from purchasing alcohol, misrepresenting their age in order to buy alcohol, or getting a legal-aged individual to purchase alcohol for them.

Harassment
Harassment is a versatile criminal charge that covers a variety of actions and behaviors under New Jersey law, including calling someone repeatedly, using offensive language to communicate with a person or persons, communicating the intent to cause alarm or annoyance, and unwanted physical contact with another person.
