Woodbridge Lawyers Helping with Minor Criminal Cases

Have you been ticketed or cited for a minor criminal offense in Woodbridge? Your case will probably go to a local or municipal court. The differences between a municipal court and Superior court are subtle, but important. You should only work with a legal team that can handle your case from start to finish.

At Palmisano & Goodman, P.A., our municipal court attorneys can assist you with all aspects of your case. Our attorneys focus on minor criminal cases that are handled in municipal court, where the court has limited jurisdiction and generally do not involve a jury.


Call (732) 709-4400 or contact us online to learn more.


Types of Municipal Court Cases We Handle

You can come to our law firm for help with these cases and more:

  • Traffic tickets: Did you get a traffic ticket for speeding, unsafe lane changes, using a cellphone while driving, etc.? You don’t have to accept the ticket. You can fight it in municipal court with our help.
  • Infractions: Minor criminal offenses that do not carry jail time as a potential penalty are called infractions, and most are handled in municipal court. Examples of infractions in New Jersey include certain moving violations, simple assault, writing fraudulent checks, and so on.
  • Municipal ordinance: You can be cited for municipal ordinances, like violating sound ordinances specific to your county. Fishing without the proper license is another type of municipal ordinance violation. We can help you with these miscellaneous infractions and citations, too.

It is important to note that many misdemeanors and felonies begin as complaints that are first filed in municipal court. As the case progresses, the charges can escalate, and a Superior Court will take the case. However, if you allow our municipal case attorneys to represent you from the start, then we might be able to get the case against you resolved in municipal court before matters worsen for you.
