New Jersey Drug Crimes Attorneys Serving Old Bridge and Surrounding Communities in Middlesex County

Drug Possession Defense Lawyers Serving Aberdeen and Surrounding Communities in Monmouth County

Have you been arrested and charged with a drug crime? The first and most important thing you need to know is that you have a right to remain silent. Use it!

It's legal for the police to threaten you. They can even lie to you. What they can't do is search you, your backpack, your car or your home unless you give permission. Do NOT give your permission. Too many people get into trouble because someone else in the car or at the party had drugs they didn't know about.

At The Law Offices of Gerard A. Del Tufo and Gerard L. Del Tufo, our New Jersey drug crimes attorneys are here to protect your rights and to defend you against criminal charges.

Be calm; be polite but ask for a lawyer immediately. Contact our office online or call 732-812-4398 Toll Free : 800-724-0622. We check voicemail and e-mail regularly and if we aren't immediately available we will get back to you as soon as possible. We can also get you a bail bondsman to arrange your release from jail.

Experience You Can Count On

Our attorneys have more than 20 years of criminal law experience. One was previously a municipal court prosecutor and the other a municipal court judge. Not all defense lawyers have had prosecution experience as well as defense experience. It can be a tremendous benefit for our clients because we know how prosecutors and police operate.

Defense Against All Drug Crime Charges

We defend against simple drug possession cases in municipal court and more serious drug cases in New Jersey Superior Court, including:

• Drug possession and possession with intent (N.J.S.A. 2C:35-10(a)) for possession of cocaine, heroin, marijuana, ecstasy, methamphetamine
• Illegal possession of prescription drugs, such as OxyContin, Percocet, Valium, etc.
• Drug sales
• Drug distribution
• Prescription fraud

Juveniles and Young Adults Charged With Drug Crimes

We represent clients of all ages, including high school students arrested for drug possession or drug sales, and college students from nearby Rutgers or Brookdale Community College. A drug conviction is particularly serious for a college student. It can get you kicked out of student housing. If you are convicted of a drug crime, you are barred from receiving financial aid.

We defend young people in juvenile court proceedings as well as in New Jersey Superior and municipal courts.

For persons facing a first-time drug possession charge, a conditional discharge program allows you to avoid jail time and retain your driver's license. And, at a later date, you can seek an expungement of your criminal record so access to your arrest is limited.

If you have been charged with a drug crime, you can count on The Law Offices of Gerard A. Del Tufo and Gerard L. Del Tufo for a strong defense. Contact a drug possession defense lawyer or call 732-812-4398 Toll Free : 800-724-0622 for a free initial phone consultation.
