Matthew Mordas represents clients facing criminal charges in New Jersey Superior and Municipal Courts, including serious violent crimes, drug offenses, juvenile matters, shoplifting, assault, restraining order issues, and disorderly persons offenses. Before entering criminal defense, Mr. Mordas worked for nearly a decade in pharmaceutical manufacturing and biologics process development, a background that helps him approach technical, scientific, and fact-sensitive evidence with discipline and attention to detail.
Mr. Mordas later served as an Assistant Deputy Public Defender with the New Jersey Office of the Public Defender, where he represented hundreds of clients facing charges ranging from petty disorderly persons offenses to criminal homicide. In that role, he argued complex motions, tried criminal cases, and helped clients and families navigate the uncertainty of the criminal justice system.
For Middlesex County clients, Mr. Mordas brings public-defender trial experience and a compassionate defense approach focused on protecting constitutional rights and building individualized strategies. His experience includes Middlesex County-area municipal matters, including a shoplifting case in Milltown Municipal Court. He is especially effective for clients who need both serious legal advocacy and clear, steady guidance through a difficult process.
