Former Prosecutor with the Right Relationships 

Unless you’ve been on the inside, you don’t know how the criminal justice system really works. Attorney Peter Katz is a former federal and state prosecutor who understands both the legal aspects of your defense and the private relationships necessary to negotiate favorable plea deals and settlements.

Unfortunately, it isn’t always about what’s just or fair. It’s often about how your criminal defense attorney is viewed and respected by local prosecutors and judges. This requires a robust history of successful defense cases, along with a positive, professional reputation in the local legal community. Peter Katz has both in New Jersey.

Choosing a Private Defense Attorney Over a Public Defender

Public defenders are well-respected and experienced lawyers, but their case loads and limited investigative resources significantly limit the time they’re able to invest in your case.
