At a time when you could lose your freedom, you have to retain the services of a highly experienced Somerset County criminal defense attorney.

At my firm, The Law Offices of Christopher G. Porreca, P.C., I have challenged numerous cases over the years. I have helped my clients obtain reduced charges, lighter sentences and, I have even helped them to get their charged dropped entirely. In every case I take on, I make it my personal mission to reveal flaws in the prosecution's case.

My charges of allowing intoxicated person to drive and unopened container were dismissed thanks to the hard work and dedication he gives to his clients. His retainer was extremely fair. His legal foresight is usually dead on. You could not be in better hands in the municipal court.
