Criminal Defense Lawyer Serving South River
Facing criminal charges in South River is frightening, and what happens next depends heavily on how the charge is classified.
Disorderly persons offenses, such as simple assault, shoplifting, or possession of a small amount of marijuana, are heard at the South River Municipal Court at 61 Main Street, 2nd Floor. More serious indictable offenses, New Jersey's version of felonies, are handled at the Superior Court, Law Division, in Middlesex County. The distinction matters: indictable charges carry the possibility of state prison and a record that can follow you for life.
