Past President of the Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers of New Jersey
If you have been arrested for a serious crime, your freedom, your reputation — your life as you know it — could depend on the decisions you make in the first 24 hours.
Do 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. Instead, contact Newark criminal lawyer Joseph D. Rotella.

Any attorney can say he or she is skilled and experienced. However, when your freedom is at stake, you need more than just a lawyer’s own statements. You would not want to have open-heart surgery from a doctor who was not certified by a medical board.
Like doctors, lawyers are certified as to their experience and competence in legal specialties by independent organizations. As a Newark criminal attorney, I am certified by both the New Jersey Supreme Court and the National Board of Trial Advocacy. I am one of only four lawyers in New Jersey to hold both certifications. I have also been selected for inclusion in New Jersey Super Lawyers every year from 2006 to 2015. Any Court, Any Crime, Any Time
My Newark law firm handles cases in federal courts, state courts and municipal courts throughout New Jersey, including places like Essex County, Morris County and Passaic County. I am known for diligence, creativity and trial skills. I can help you fight your charges, whether they involve a federal crime such as health care fraud, a gun crime or drug offense in state court, or a traffic ticket in municipal court.
Choosing the right Newark criminal attorney to defend you will be one of the most important decisions you ever make. I offer a free initial consultation to help you decide if I am the right attorney for you. I can explain your options and give you an analysis of your case. The sooner you call me, the sooner I can begin the process of defending your rights and protecting your freedom.
