Protecting People From Punishment on Assault Charges
The advice of a seasoned defense lawyer can help you in many ways if you've been charged with assault or another violent offense. Your attorney can develop your strongest possible defense at trial while looking for ways to minimize your risk of punishment. Exposing the weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence at an early stage of the case could even result in dismissal of the charges against you in certain cases.

To learn how you can benefit from a skilled defense lawyer's advice, contact the Law Offices of Mark J. Cintron for a free consultation. With offices in Parsippany, Montclair and Oradell, we represent people facing criminal or traffic charges in Superior or Municipal Court.
The following are examples of the kinds of cases we can handle on behalf of adults and juveniles:
- Homicide
- Manslaughter, including felony DUI charges related to a fatal accident
- Simple assault
- Aggravated assault
- Domestic assault and family violence
- Restraining order violations
- Weapons offenses
- Armed robbery
Our goal in the defense of assault and other violent charges is to bring the case to an early and favorable conclusion. We investigate and analyze the evidence and do everything possible to expand your options.
The best way to handle your case will depend on the specific facts of your situation. If you have no previous record of violent offenses, we'll often have a good chance of steering your case away from the criminal justice system. If you're charged with a crime that could send you to prison for 6 months or more, we work with the prosecution to see if the case can be referred to municipal court, where your risk of punishment will be substantially reduced.
Most of all, our law firm helps the people we represent take full advantage of their constitutional presumption of innocence. Much of our work involves making strong efforts to convince the prosecutor that the evidence that a jury will hear may leave a great deal of doubt as to your guilt. If we can lessen the prosecution's confidence in its case, your options for an acceptable resolution increase.
