Woodbridge Disorderly Conduct Attorneys

Representing Non-Violent Criminal Offenses

At Palmisano & Goodman, P.A., our legal team is dedicated to helping clients fight any and all criminal charges, including disorderly persons offenses. Though they may seem minor, disorderly persons offenses can impact your life. It is crucial that you take steps toward fighting these charges with the help of an experienced lawyer. Fighting the charges or seeking a dismissal is the only way to ensure that your criminal record stays clean. Our Woodbridge criminal defense attorneys can provide you with the level of representation you need to avoid a conviction.

Understanding Non-Violent Charges

We have more than 100+ combined years of experience under our belt and we can assist you in understanding the consequences of a conviction or plea and your options for avoiding these charges altogether, if possible. These rimes may not have included a physical arrest, but a ticket or summons. A ticket or summons essentially means that you were arrested, but were not put through the booking process and were still required to appear in front of a judge.

  • Disorderly persons offenses is a general term for a range of misdemeanor crimes, including:
  • Shoplifting
  • Simple assault
  • Drug paraphernalia
  • Harassment
  • Disputes between neighbors
  • Threats
  • Bad checks

Representation in Municipal Court Appearances

There are time constraints on when a disorderly person's offense matter can be filed. For most of these types of crimes, the statute of limitations is one year. This means that a shoplifting charge or other complaints must be filed within one year of the commission of the alleged crime. If it is not filed within a year, the case is dropped since the prosecution is barred from moving forward. You can rely on our Woodbridge criminal defense lawyers to represent you in all court hearings and fight for your rights.

  • “Highly Recommend Maureen Goodman!”
    Highly Recommend Maureen Goodman! Twice, due to accidents which were not my fault but caused major damage, I have reached out to Maureen and am very grateful to her and her team - Marci and Erin. Maureen is very sharp in her legal knowledge, facts of the case and spot-on about the possible outcomes. She always returns calls, answers the questions and does not make false promises. I found her very professional and a rare combination of ethics and intelligence. Above all, Maureen got me excellent and very timely results in both cases and I had peace of mind throughout the process that I was in excellent hands.
