Former Prosecutors that Know the Manalapan Court and Have the Know How to Defend You.

If you or a family member have been charged with a traffic offense, criminal offense, disorderly persons offense, or a township ordinance in Manalapan Township you need a local attorney who knows this town’s court system. Inevitably, even in a quiet town like Manalapan, brushes with the law can occur from traffic stops by the police to interactions with security officer at a local store.

When something like this happens the criminal defense attorneys at Clark & Clark, all of whom are former prosecutors, are ready and able to step in and protect you. Our clients have been charged with a myriad of criminal offenses including disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, harassment, criminal mischief, aggravated assault, simple assault, domestic violence, and possession or distribution of marijuana or prescription drugs like Oxycodone and Roxicodone. These offenses fall within the category of what are called disorderly persons offenses. These can be serious charges with real consequences. The Judge in these types of cases has the authority to render sentences up to 6 months in county jail and fines that can exceed thousands of dollars.

Experience in Traffic Infractions and DUI/DWI

Traffic tickets and other traffic infractions like drunk driving are also heard in Manalapan Township Municipal Court. These cases can include multiple traffic violations for DUI or DWI, Speeding, Reckless Driving, Careless Driving, Driving While Suspended or Revoked, Leaving the Scene of a Motor Vehicle Accident, and Driving Without Car Insurance. These offenses can carry hefty fines, loss of driving privilege in the State of New Jersey, and in some cases even jail.

We Have The Experience with Manalapan Township Cases

With over 35 years of criminal trial experience our lawyers have handled literally thousands of these types of criminal and traffic cases. Our trial and litigation experience has paid dividends for our clients. In many cases our careful evaluation of the police reports and interviews with witnesses have prompted judges to suppress evidence and forced prosecutors to outright dismiss cases. In other cases we have gone to trial and won.

In almost every other case without exception, where the evidence against our clients is strong, we have been able to effectively advocate on behalf of our clients to get pleas to lesser charges. These reduced plea offers are regularly to Manalapan Township Ordinances. This is ideal because township ordinances are legally considered crimes or criminal acts and do not carry the stigma of a criminal conviction.

In traffic court cases we have likewise been able to negotiate lesser fines and penalties in almost every case. For example, in most cases, we have been able to get careless driving, reckless driving, or speeding reduced to an unsafe driving violation which is a no point violation that carries only a fine.

Your record is something that you must vigilantly protect. With something as important as your record going it alone is simply not a good plan. We have the years of trial and negotiating experience you need to get the job done right.

Difference Between Indictable Cases Pending in Mercer County Superior Court and Disorderly Persons Offenses Heard in Mercer County Municipal Courts

Uncertainty is perhaps the most worrying aspect of facing criminal charges in Mercer County so understanding the basics is an essential first step. Felonies, which are the most serious charges, are commonly referred to as indictable offenses. They are prosecuted by the Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office and heard in Mercer County Superior Court in Trenton. At Clark & Clark we’ve handled many violent felonies such as Murder, Burglary, Robbery, Kidnapping, Aggravated Assault, Terroristic Threats, Alluding the Police, Sexual Assault, Rape, and Sexual Misconduct. We have also represented clients charged with many non-violent felonies such as Fraud, Criminal Mischief, and Distribution, Manufacturing, or Possession of CDS, (controlled dangerous substances such as Marijuana, Heroin, Cocaine, Oxycodone, and Roxicodone). Indictable offenses can carry lengthy state prison sentences and hefty fines that can reach hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Misdemeanors, commonly referred to as disorderly persons offenses, are not handled in Mercer County Superior Court but rather are handled in the individual Mercer County town municipal court where the charge occurred. There are a wide range of disorderly persons offenses like Simple Assault, Disorderly Conduct, Harassment, Criminal Mischief, Shoplifting, Theft, Underage Possession of Alcohol, Providing Alcohol to Minors, and Possession of Marijuana Less Than Fifty Grams to name just a few. While they are generally considered less serious than felonies they nevertheless can carry Mercer County Jail sentences of up to 6 months, loss of driving privileges, and thousands of dollars in fines or restitution.

All traffic summonses are also heard in the Mercer County town municipal court where the charge arose. These cases commonly include violations for Drunk Driving, DUI/DWI, Speeding, Reckless Driving, Careless Driving, Driving With a Suspended or Revoked License, Leaving the Scene of a Motor Vehicle Accident, and Driving Without Car Insurance. These offenses are not criminal in nature, however, traffic cases can carry serious consequences like the loss of your driver’s license in this state for two years of more, and points on your driving record that will incur insurance surcharge payments, and insurance premium hikes. In some cases, certain traffic violations can even carry terms of incarceration in the Mercer County Jail.

Put Our Experience to Work Protecting Your Rights and Your Record

Clearly, with all of the consequences a case in Mercer County court could involve, putting up a defense without the best possible representation is simply not an option. With more than thirty five years of criminal trial experience on both the prosecution and defense sides of the process, the lawyers at Clark & Clark, continually achieve the most favorable results in criminal cases for our clients. Where our clients have been innocent, we have gone to trial and won. In many cases we have successfully litigated the suppression of the State’s evidence and obtained dismissals of the charges. In cases where the evidence against the client is strong, we have nevertheless been able to advocate on behalf of the client and negotiate a plea deal that involves significantly reduced penalties.

At Clark & Clark we have the skill and experience to investigate your case, analyze the evidence, and advise you on a course of action that is best for you. Whether we are seeking a dismissal, negotiating the best plea deal available, or defending your legal rights at a trial, we understand the courts in Mercer County, and how to make the system work best for you.

If this has happened to you, you can count on the criminal defense attorneys at Clark & Clark to stand up for you and safeguard your rights.

Typically, our clients are charged with criminal offenses that include aggravated assault, simple assault, domestic violence, disorderly conduct, harassment, criminal mischief, shoplifting, theft, underage possession of alcohol, providing alcohol to minors, and possession or distribution of marijuana or prescription drugs like Oxycodone and Roxicodone. The Belmar Municipal Court Judge has discretion to sentence anyone convicted of these criminal offenses and other criminal offenses (also referred to as “disorderly persons offenses”) to as much as 6 months in county jail.

All traffic offenses occurring in Belmar are also heard in the Belmar Municipal Court. We have successfully defended our clients against many traffic summonses for violations including DUI or DWI, Speeding, Reckless Driving, Careless Driving, Driving While Suspended or Revoked, Leaving the Scene of a Motor Vehicle Accident, and Driving Without Car Insurance. These offenses can carry hefty fines, loss of driving privilege in the State of New Jersey, and in some cases even jail.

Former Prosecutors – We Have The Experience with Belmar Cases

With over 35 years of criminal trial experience our lawyers have handled literally thousands of these types of criminal and traffic cases. In many cases they have succeeded in having cases completely dismissed once they have reviewed the discovery in the case and negotiated a dismissal with the municipal prosecutor. In other cases we have gone to trial and won.

In cases where the evidence against our clients is very strong, our attorneys have nevertheless been able to successfully advocate on behalf of our clients, and convince prosecutors to reduce the initial charges to a local Borough Ordinance. Every town has local ordinances that allow you to avoid a criminal record and the ramifications stemming from a criminal conviction. For instance, in a charge for disorderly conduct can often be amended to a “Excessive Noise” type of ordinance.

When it comes to something as important as protecting your record from the negative effects of a criminal offense you need to hire the right people for the job. Our attorneys have the years of trial and negotiating experience necessary to protect your rights.
