Why Should I Choose A Certified Criminal Trial Attorney To Defend A Monmouth County Sex Assault Offense?

A lack of understanding of what is entailed in defending a sexual assault charge often leads defendants or their families to hire an attorney for the wrong reasons. The biggest mistake in our estimation is selecting a lawyer who talks a big game or throws a lot of rhetoric on his/her website but actually has limited, or more often than not, ZERO experience actually trying sexual assault cases. This is a potentially devastating shortcoming since these types of cases go to trial in a far higher percentage of criminal law cases than is the norm. Indeed, this only makes sense when you have a victim claiming that they were raped, penalties that are devastating, and extraordinarily few opportunities for non-custodial (i.e. no jail or prison) plea bargains. Don’t make same mistake. Here at Marshall Criminal Defense we have vast experience conducting trials in 2C:14-2 cases and this is something that is an imperative if you want to ensure the best opportunity for a successful defense.
