Casandra T. DeStefano represents clients in municipal and Superior Court criminal matters, including traffic violations, disorderly persons offenses, drug charges, domestic violence matters, final restraining order hearings, assault, harassment, criminal mischief, shoplifting, and suspended license cases.

Before joining The Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall, Ms. DeStefano handled criminal defense and family court matters, including divorces and restraining order hearings. She also clerked for the Honorable Peter J.

Her Middlesex County experience includes favorable results in Woodbridge, Old Bridge, and Sayreville Municipal Courts, including traffic, harassment, criminal mischief, and simple assault matters. For clients in Edison, New Brunswick, Woodbridge, Old Bridge, Piscataway, and surrounding Middlesex County towns, Ms. DeStefano offers responsive representation, careful preparation, and a strong understanding of how criminal charges can affect family, employment, driving privileges, and reputation.
