I hired Hanan earlier this year to help me get through an extremely difficult situation with my employer. He was very knowledgeable and accurate as to what to expect through the ordeal. Even though this was an incredibly stressful time in my life, I felt very confident I chose the right attorney to have in my corner. My situation had a positive conclusion and I am grateful Hanan was there to get me through it.

The Kingston Law Group has successfully delivered for me on three different legal issues over the past decade. These range from employment issues to alimony termination. Hanan Isaacs represented me, providing sound advice, excellent communication, solid preparation, expert legal knowledge and tenacious advocacy. Hanan is backed up by an incredibly skilled, hard-working, kind and empathetic staff. This includes Shelby and Lori, who I feel were truly invested in my success. Misty Avallone, another talented attorney in this office, was brought in to assist most recently. Misty kindly provided expert knowledge and direct assistance with a significant amount of detail work required to facilitate full preparedness for the best outcome. The entire office went over and above to accommodate a disability. Hanan and his team did a phenomenal job, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. It was a true pleasure to work with such talented, motivated and kind-hearted people.

I have to say, Mr. Hark earned his way to be one of the top lawyers in New Jersey, and the sorrounding areas, for a reason. I am honored to have been able to have him in my corner throughout my case. He and his team never made false promises, and were always honest with me and my family. Knowing that there are several different factors when dealing with the courts, depending on the specifics of one's case, it is reasonable for people to feel somewhat skeptical at times. But, Mr. Hark never stopped fighting and I am appreciative of that. He held up his word all throughout the process. You can see his determination and tenacity speak through his words, and that drive also permeate through his team. And besides being an overall exceptional lawyer, he's just as great a person behind the suit; a honest man, a caring father, and a real person. I assure, that this is a real review from a situation that went on years and was finally resolved. And to mention, his brother also helped a family member of mine through a situation some years ago, which is why I was even recommended. Sometimes good people get caught and bad situations, and at those times, you want a lawyer who can see you for who you are, to speak for you when it matters. For anyone reading this, you would not be making a mistake choosing to go with Hark & Hark. You can take my word for it. And Mr. Hark, if you read this, I want to say thank you again, and my family thanks you, and your team. I wish you all peace, protection, and blessings on your journeys. I will continue to recommend you guys to those who may need it. Much respect.

Mr horicon his staff did an amazing job representing me in a motor vehicle crash, an eviction, a restraining order, and a criminal matter. He was able to successfully have the criminal matter dismissed, the restraining order dismissed and he just settled a car crash for me within 18 months from the date of the crash. His staff was always involved in on top of things and I was always aware of what was going on with all of my cases. He and his staff are very accessible kind and helpful at every turn every time I called. I felt like they were really involved with me and cared about me and my legal woes. I would be happy to call them again any day of the week. I also recommend them to anybody that's looking for an attorney to help them with a criminal, personal injury, family, restraining order, traffic, or other legal matter. Because of the way they helped me and handle my affairs I will always be grateful to Mr Hark and his staff.

I hired Mr. Hark for a very serious criminal charge in Camden County and then caught a second serious criminal charge in Camden county. Not only did he get me out of absolutely guaranteed state prison he got the case, remanded to municipal court, and got me straight probation on the second case. Did I say straight probation? I meant to say one year probation, not to not three or not four years probation. he did an amazing job. He was in touch with me every step of the way, constantly kept me informed, worked with me regarding my payment plan and inability to get a job given the pending criminal charges. He really was concerned about me and my well-being and my families well-being The entire time. There wasn’t a time I couldn’t get in touch with him… He’s always on call and available to help you and your family with our question. I absolutely highly recommend Mr. Hark for any criminal matter. I also understand that he has helped a few friends of mine with personal injury and Worker’s Comp. matters. They put me in touch with him and said the exact same thing. He is the man who is on your case and cares. I didn’t actually believe them until I experienced his personal service and his office service as well as his results. Now I found out from myself. It’s your return to. He is the go to guy.

Mr. Nugent provided me the best representation on several occasions with different criminal cases. The relationships he has built over the years and level of respect he receives in an out of the courtrooms is something I've never seen or witnessed before. He works hard for his clients best interest! If secured early on, a pre-indictment deal might be something to explore. One way or another, one of a kind and I highly recommend attorney Mr. Chuck Nugent Esq.

I was under the impression that shock occurred when something very bad happened to you, such being rear-ended by an inattentive driver who took out my trunk and backseat and could very well have taken out me. Did I deserve a settlement? No question. Circumstances, pictures, and an eye witness made that clear. None-the-less, a medical complication could have obscured the facts and made a just settlement tricky- and it was. I wasn't very hopeful. But when I went to Mr. Nugent's office-a place where you are treated like family-to pick up my check and saw what he had accomplished, I amazed myself that I behaved calmly, I thanked him and then drove directly, and ever so carefully, to my bank, having learned that shock can also occur when something very good happens to you.

I was referred to Mr. Nugent by another attorney following a car accident. He was endlessly kind, always supportive, and at every step of the process, the Nugent team kept me informed and prepared for whatever was to happen next. My intentions were respected, and although I hope to never again repeat the experience, would engage no one else.

I hired Mr. Appel to represent me for several traffic violations I received while in New Jersey, I am a PA resident. After waiting almost two years, due to Covid, and court dates being postponed, no fault of Mr. Appel, I am very happy with the results from this law firm! After the firm requested discovery from the State Police several times, it was never received. Resulting in the case and all charges being dismissed. I did not have to pay any fines or court cost. The fee for the attorney was well worth it (it wasn't much at all)!!

I wish I could write more, but my case was over almost instantly once Mike was appointed. He reached out to me immediately and wanted to hear my truth within minutes of a short introduction. He clearly and simply explained to me my case, my possible penalties, and worst/best case scenarios in GREAT DETAIL. He did an amazing job letting me know he was in my corner 100%, believed me and my story, and he got me off with a "slap" on wrist which was more than I deserved but when it comes to the justice system and its "fairness", Mike got me a deal that saved my business and my future.

Kevin was beyond exceptional. I had such a stressful case with family law and DV, however with Kevin as my attorney I always knew what to expect and what our next step was.

If you need a great lawyer you need not look any further then Kevin Orr.

Eugene has been nothing short of an excellent source of information, support and structure throughout my MVA. He made the process easy to understand, effectively communicated our team’s goals and hopes to the litigation, and transformed it into a winning settlement that exceeded my expectations. I cannot give Eugene enough praise for sticking with us through the 3 and a half years between the courts, lawyers, medical visits and paperwork signing. If you need an attorney this is the only one worth hiring.

Recently, Eugenie worked on my case (civil suit). I was the defendant, Eugenie was very attentive, He tried to clarify every detail about this case. He prepared me well for the trial, Eugenie represented me at the trial and we won the trial! I was incredibly happy, because I had to win this case and Eugenie did it!
The most important thing I can say is that Eugenie not only prepares well for a case - he feels what needs to be said to the judge for the highest chance of winning the case

Joseph was the absolute best—if I could give more than 5 stars, I would! It was my first home purchase and first time hiring an attorney. I saw that he was rated the highest in my area and now I see why. The whole process of working with him could not have been easier! He was there every step of the way and through all the obstacles (believe me there were many). He was always on top of everything, would reach out with frequent updates from seller’s counsel, and would simplify the confusing legalese surrounding the entire process. From the custom riders to the initial sellers contract, the seamless attorney review phase, and much more, I couldn’t have asked for better than Joseph on my side. Well done, sir!

Mr. Peter Bentey came to our aid as a professional, capable attorney, meticulous in all details. In spite of apparently overwhelming obstacles, Mr. Bentey’s exhaustive investigation uncovered details verifying that the majority of complaints against us were inaccurate, unfounded, and warranted a fair judicial review in court.
Throughout the legal process, Mr. Bentey provided regular status updates, and he responded promptly to our questions and concerns. His instructions were always clear and detailed.
Thanks to Mr. Bentey’s unrelenting efforts, the positive evidence he uncovered has mitigated the vast majority of alleged guilt in a case that seemed hopeless.
Mr. Bentey is a competent, intelligent attorney. That is his business.
Mr. Bentey is a man with a heart who cares about his people. He makes that his business.

Words simply aren’t enough to describe what I’ve earned in life because of this man. His professionalism, human nature, and decorum are just some of his beautiful attributes he brings to the court room. He assessed and directed my entire approach and was spot on with my expected outcome. Through laying out the facts and showing my credibility Ted fought for mw to have joint custody of my son. No tricks, no gimmicks. Just the law, and his excellent reasoning and approach granted me everything I could have asked for. I have a voice and coachable moments now with my son whom I wasn’t able to with prior to finding Ted.

I left a very long review on another popular site already so I'll make this quick. The time he spent engaging with me and speaking to me honestly, guiding me on the best proper steps that should be taken and overall helpfulness speaks volumes to his character. I'm not one to go out of my way and act like a Karen unless something is so horrible they deserve a negative review or they are so helpful they deserve praise. I am on avvo, a site I never heard of until recently, going out of my way to leave a review because he went way out of his way and that is something no other Attorney has ever done. He truly deserves more than 5 stars as a Thank You for restoring my faith in the legal community (well, maybe that is a bit much because I question lots of legal professionals ethics after the one I dealt with before. I welcome you to go read that review ha.)
I would totally recommend Scott to anyone who needs legal assistance and wants a knowledgeable and helpful Attorney who has your best interest in mind. Not the fake "I like to help my clients and care" bs line that all the Attorneys proclaim. He truly does want to be helpful

Lana is an excellent real estate attorney. I did a lot of research to find her and it was worth it. Lana helped me buy my first house. She was incredibly helpful, explaining all the details (and there are A LOT of details), and never dismissed any of my concerns - and I had a lot of questions. She is a pleasure to work with.
I highly recommend Lana to anyone looking to purchase a home. You need a good attorney when you buy a house and Lana is the best. She is very knowledgeable and prepped me on what to expect every step of the way from dealing with real estate agents on both sides of the table to what I should be saying to the people at city hall.
Even though the sellers did not have their act together and created multiple delays and complications throughout the process, Lana kept things on track and moving along smoothly on my end. If you are looking for a real estate attorney in New Jersey you should definitely contact her, she is great and her rates are affordable as well.

I had the privilege to have the representation of an exceptional lawyer, John Bruno, whose expertise and unwavering commitment led to a remarkable outcome. Despite facing the daunting prospect of 6-10 years in prison, compounded by four prior felony charges for the same offense, their strategic approach and tireless advocacy resulted in a sentence of probation. Their meticulous preparation, persuasive courtroom presence, and deep understanding of the legal system not only saved me from a lengthy incarceration but also provided me with a second chance to rebuild my life. Their unwavering support and guidance throughout the entire process were invaluable, instilling confidence and reassurance during a challenging time. I cannot express enough gratitude for their exceptional legal representation, which undoubtedly changed the course of my future for the better.

I needed a lawyer familiar with our SJ townships, and did not want a firm filled with associates who cared about billable hours. Mike met with me and cared about my situation. He represented me, defended me, counseled me to the best possible outcome ! He set a strategy that was brilliant and took away the court appearance anxiety.

We used Tanya for a house sale / purchase in early 2022. Tanya was great to work with and made the stressful process of selling / buying a house much easier. She communicated up front what the process would involve (we hadn't had a real estate transaction in over 20 years so it was a good refresher!) and was extremely proactive in all aspects of the process. We appreciated her attention to detail and patience with all of the many questions we had! We also were very happy with the title agency she recommended - they were great to work with. We would highly recommend Tanya for any real estate related legal work.

This had to be the scariest thing I've evenly gone through. I never thought I would ever need to file for bankruptcy. Ed helped me come to terms with it and gave me comfort by assuring me there is life after a bankruptcy and it will pass. He is very professional, always reachable and will answer any concerns you may have. I know I chose the best bankruptcy lawyer in New Jersey. Please do not hesitate to use his services if anyone can you get you out of bankruptcy with no issues it's Ed Vaisman!

One of the best decisions of my life was to have hired the lawyer Vaisman to take my bankruptcy case, he is a person who has shown me that he can be trusted and answered all my questions without hesitation.
I also love the way he takes the case and the follow-up of everything. In addition to all that he knows about the subject, another point that was very important to me is the patience he had to understand me and I say it with respect to the language since Spanish is my first language, he always made sure that we understood each other and not only that, when my case has been resolved, he also made sure to explain and teach us how to raise the credit again.
And not only that in addition to being the best lawyer specialized in this issue, it is also the most economical we have found, since the other lawyers I have contacted charged me twice and did not guarantee me anything since my case was very complex, but not for Mr. Vaisman.
Please know that I don't usually leave reviews but in this case I must do it since this lawyer has earned it.
Thank you very much for your excellent work and service Mr. Vaisman you have definitely earned another loyal customers and will definitely recommend you for now on.
========================================================
Unas de las mejores decisiones de mi vida fue haber contratado al abogado Vaisman para que llevara mi caso de bancarrota, es una persona que me ha demostrado que se puede confiar en el, que cualquier duda que uno tenga el la va a responder sin ningun problema.
Tambien me encanto la manera que llevo el caso y el seguimiento de todo. Ademas de todo lo que el sabe sobre el tema otro punto que me parecio MUY importante es la paciencia que el tuvo para entender a uno y lo digo con respecto al idioma ya que el espanol es mi primer idioma, el siempre se aseguro que nos entendieramos y no solo eso, cuando el caso mio se ha resuelto tambien se aseguro de explicarnos y ensenarnos como volver a subir el credito.
Y no solo eso ademas de ser el mejor abogado especializado en este tema tambien es el mas economico que hemos encontrado, ya que los otros abogados que he contactado me cobraban muchisimo mas y no me garantizaban nada ya que mi caso era muy complejo, pero no para Mr. Vaisman.
Quiero que sepan que no soy de dejar reviews pero en este caso debi hacerlo ya que este abogado se lo ha ganado.
Muchisimas gracias por su excelente trabajo y servicio Mr. Vaisman definitivamente usted se ha ganado otros clientes fieles a usted y por supuesto lo voy a recomendar a usted ahora en adelante.

I was pulled over by an NJ trooper for speeding on NJ highway and there was misunderstanding between us (it was my first time to get pulled, I was too nervous and English is not my native language). The officer issued multiple tickets and I was facing license suspension. I called multiple traffic lawyers and Mr. Advani was the only one who listened the whole story patiently and gave me detailed analysis of my situation. He explained the best/worst scenario and what the expected outcome would be. There were more than 3 months between the day of my offense and the final court date, and every time I had a question, Mr. Advani replied timely. During the court date, he waited patiently with me before seeing the judge, and communicated well with the judge. We got the "best case scenario" results: 3 of the tickets were disposed, the total point was reduced to 2 and I kept my license. Mr. Advani is professional and experienced, and he is a nice person. If you are in trouble with the tickets, I would highly recommend him!

I got a ticket a while back for speeding, and I was given a reckless driving on top of it - just a bad situation, that I did not know the full ramifications of, till I hired the services of Vik Advani.
From the very beginning with Vik, there was a clear communication path, with clear details on the tickets, the points, expectations, best and worst case scenarios, insurance impacts, and the timeline. My questions were answered in a timely fashion and I did not experience any concerns, issues, delays etc. - I probably learnt more in my few discussions than I could reading books!
Eventually, at the court trial, my outcome was better than the best case scenario, and Vik's services were worth every penny, which, in the state of NJ with it's speeding laws, are more than generous.
I'd recommend his services without a second thought.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You
A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.
Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.
When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?
It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:
- Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
- Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
- Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
- Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
- Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
- Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.
What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?
Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:
- Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
- Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
- Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
- Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
- Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
- Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
- Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.
How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?
Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:
- Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
- Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.
The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.
How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:
- Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
- Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
- Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.
Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer
Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes. -
What is your fee structure?
Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs. -
What are the potential outcomes of my case?
A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction. -
How many cases have you taken to trial?
While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial. -
Who will handle my case?
Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work. -
How do you communicate with your clients?
Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer
To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
- Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
- Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
- Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:
- Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
- Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
- List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
- Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.
By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
