Handling various criminal charges requires extensive knowledge of the law and the criminal procedure affecting your case.  In such matters you need experienced attorneys familiar with the myriad and sometimes interrelated local, state and federal laws.  Don't trust your criminal case to just any group of lawyers.

As criminal law attorneys in New Jersey, Carl J. Herman has gained these and other skills through a career that includes 23 years in private practice and seven years as an Essex County public defender.

Due to his work as a criminal lawyer in New Jersey for those who cannot afford private counsel, Mr. Herman makes it part of his private practice to help clients afford quality legal counsel.  Although attorneys working as public defenders are capable and compassionate lawyers, their heavy case loads do not enable them to offer the personalized attention our law firm does.

Criminal lawyers in New Jersey devoted to the community

Attorney Herman appeared as a commentator on Court TV and 60 Minutes II.  In April 2003, The American Lawyer did a profile on his work as a defense lawyer and Mr. Herman has been the subject of several articles in the New York Times.  This media coverage of his career and requests for his input speaks highly of the representation he offers to clients.

In addition to his work as a legal analyst, lecturer, and criminal law attorney, Mr. Herman has served as a trustee for the Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers of New Jersey since 1995.  In 1998, the Essex County Bar Association gave Mr. Herman an award naming him Criminal Defense Lawyer of the Year— recognizing his dedication to clients, service, and justice in NJ.
