Reopening a previous case to reduce penalties and charges

Post-conviction relief may be the solution you need to minimize the impact of sentencing or to protect your rights if you have been previously charged with a crime. We may be able to seek a diversionary program to lessen your sentence or pursue post-conviction relief to improve the outcome of a current case. If you have a previous charge, we may be able to reduce current charges through post-conviction relief.

We are experienced in post-conviction relief matters involving:

  • Driver’s license revocation
  • Surcharges related to licensing
  • Diversionary programs
  • Post-conviction motion/expungement
  • Driving while intoxicated (DWI/DUI)
  • Assault & Threat Offenses

  • Drug possession and distribution
  • Theft and fraud offenses
  • Sex crimes
  • Traffic offenses
  • Firearms and other weapons offenses
  • Murder & Manslaughter

The Appeals Process

In addition to post-conviction relief through expungement, we can also represent you in the appellate process. Whether you are appealing a Municipal Court decision or the decision of a Superior Court, we have the experience to effectively represent your interests. You may be able to appeal your case for ineffective assistance of counsel, judicial error, and an erroneous application of the law. We will begin an immediate investigation to collect all necessary evidence in support of your appeal.

If you are considering an appeal, it is important to contact an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights. Appeals do have a very short timeframe and you should know your rights as soon as possible. You can talk to a Middlesex County, New Jersey defense lawyer 24 hours a day by calling 732-450-8300 or 732-246-7126 for a free initial consultation.
