A Violent Crime Conviction Can Ruin Your Future
Anytime someone is facing a felony charge in a New Jersey court, the stakes are high. Sentences for those convicted of violent crimes are often severe due to the nature of the alleged offenses. Of course, simply being accused of a crime does not make you guilty, even if the odds are stacked against you. That’s why the most important decision you can make about your criminal defense is the selection of an experienced defense lawyer who you can trust to protect your rights and stand by you throughout the process.
I’m Northfield criminal defense attorney Michael F. Myers, and I founded my law firm — Law Office of Michael F. Myers — to defend people who are facing the fight of their lives: a fight for their freedom. The criminal justice system is designed to be intimidating, and many people who are charged with violent crimes in Atlantic County might be tempted to give up the fight. But I’ll fight on your behalf and do everything I can to give you the best chance at a favorable result in your case.
