Newark Criminal Defense Lawyer Joseph Rotella
If you’ve been arrested for a serious crime, your freedom, your reputation – even your life as you know it – could depend on the decisions you make in the first 24 hours.
You should not talk to police, your employer, the newspapers, or anyone else about your arrest. Any attempt you make to explain the situation could only make matters worse – and may work against certain legal defenses. The only person you should talk to is an experienced criminal defense attorney.
Any attorney can say they are experienced. However, when your life is at stake, you need more than a lawyer’s own statements. You wouldn’t want to have open-heart surgery from a doctor who wasn’t certified by a medical board.
Like doctors, lawyers are certified as to their experience and competence in legal specialties by independent organizations. Newark criminal defense lawyer Joseph Rotella is certified by both the New Jersey Supreme Court and the National Board of Trial Advocacy. He is one of only four lawyers in New Jersey to hold both certifications. Joseph Rotella has also been a designated a 2007 New Jersey Super Lawyer* by his peers.
Joseph Rotella represents clients charged with all municipal, state and federal offenses, including:
