Prosecutors don't always get the charges right, and overcharging happens more often than most people realize.
When you work with our experienced Marlton, NJ defense attorney, Charles, Nugent, we can challenge these discrepancies by analyzing the evidence to determine whether the charges actually match the alleged conduct. If the case appears excessive or unsupported, your attorney can file motions to reduce or dismiss charges and negotiate directly with the prosecution for fair treatment.

The bottom line is early intervention on your behalf can sometimes resolve overcharging before a case ever reaches trial. So call us right away at (856) 596-9770 to discuss your situation.
