About Our Piscataway Office
Piscataway Township New Jersey was settled in 1666 and is the fifth oldest community in the state. The township measures 19.1 square miles and is bordered by nine municipalities, including Edison and New Brunswick. It is the home to many facilities of Rutgers University, including Highpoint Solutions Stadium and Busch Campus, as well as corporations like American Standard Brands. In 2014, Money Magazine ranked Piscataway 27th of the top 50 places to live in America.
All of these are nice facts but the subject that is relevant here is criminal, traffic and DWI charges in Piscataway NJ. The most recently reported statistics issued by the New Jersey Administrative Offices of the Courts (July 2015-June 2016) indicates that there were 565 indictable crimes of the first, second, third and fourth degree, 1326 disorderly persons offenses, 155 dwi and 8,561 moving traffic offenses filed in the municipality. These totals placed the municipality in the top quarter in Middlesex County in terms of court filings. It therefore is not surprising that Piscataway Municipal Court conducts 2-3 court sessions each week as compared to the typical municipality which only has one.
If you were charged with DWI in Piscataway, it is important that you know this violation is not a criminal charge like, for example, possession of drugs. Driving while intoxicated is a motor vehicle violation that will not result in a record but can trigger thousands in fines, surcharges and increased automobile insurance costs, a suspension of your driver’s license and jail. This is one of the main reasons for you to contact the Middlesex County Criminal Defense Lawyers at The Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall to defend your charge charge in Piscataway.
