Defense Against Criminal Charges in Newark, NJ

There's probably nothing more frightening than facing criminal charges. Your future, your freedom and your reputation are facing an uncertain fate. Times like these require a strong defense from a seasoned Newark criminal defense attorney.

If you want to protect yourself, refrain from talking to law enforcement without having your lawyer present. Even if you think you are helping the investigation, you won't be helping yourself. Without an extensive knowledge of the law, you could accidentally say something that could incriminate yourself and lead to disastrous consequences. The legal system is an intricate system that relies on following proper procedure. If law enforcement makes an error at any point in the process, it can actually benefit the client and possibly lead to reduced or dropped charges.

At my firm, The Law Offices of Christopher G. Porreca, P.C., I will not only question any evidence or testimony against you, but I will scrutinize the prosecution's case and search for any errors made by law enforcement. You can't depend upon the police or the prosecution to exonerate you; it will be up to an aggressive defense attorney to protect your legal rights from the very beginning.
