Welcome to the law firm of Carl J. Herman, Esq.

 

Criminal Offenses:   First and foremost, you have the right to an attorney (legal representation). Be aware that the law contains a seemingly infinite number of loopholes.  The right to a fair and speedy trial and the right to be provided a specific statement of the charges are two other very important rights of a defendant.  

 

The law office of Carl J. Herman has been defending clients arrested or accused of a crime for over twenty-five years. From our office in West Orange, New Jersey, we provide criminal defense to clients statewide, including but not limited to Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Monmouth, Morris, Passaic, Sussex, Union and Warren counties.

 

If you find yourself charged with a crime, you need the legal counsel of an experienced criminal defense attorney, to protect your rights now, and in the future.  Today's legal environment is highly complex. Federal, state and local authorities constantly issue or amend laws that affect our lives.  The selection of an attorney to provide advice in any situation is an important decision, which can have a lasting impact upon an individual.  We combine innovative strategies, commitment and dedication to deliver effective results for our clients - one client at a time.

 

A conviction of a crime can be very costly, as you can face forfeiture of assets, suspended driver's license privileges, loss of automobile, mandatory jail time, and mandatory fines. A knowledgeable and skilled criminal defense attorney can make all the difference. Carl Herman has extensive experience in juvenile, municipal, state and federal court.
