New Jersey Criminal Defense Attorney

Former Prosecutor

The Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall has experience representing individuals charged with a DWI, DUI or Refusal, while having a minor in their vehicle.  Our criminal defense attorneys will insure that your interests are protected and that the best possible outcome is reached.

A drinking and driving charge involving operation while a minor is present is typically accompanied by a separate disorderly persons charge under N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.15.  This charge carries an additional six month drivers license suspension in the event of a finding of guilt to driving while intoxicated or driving under the influence while a minor was present in the vehicle.  There are also additional fines, community service, surcharges, and jail exposure, which are triggered when a drunk driving offense is committed with a minor in the vehicle.

Our office can effectively defend you and provide every opportunity to mitigate any negative result, for example, convincing the Court to run any license suspensions concurrent when a conviction cannot be avoided.  Please contact the Law Offices of Jonathan F. Marshall for a free initial consultation and one of our dwi defense lawyers will assist you.
