Somerset County NJ Assault and Threat Defense Attorneys

A major category of offenses set forth in the New Jersey Criminal Code is Assault and Threat Crimes. A broad range of charges involving conduct designed to cause injury to person or property fall under this umbrella. They include violent acts like assault, as well as threats to others, for example, terroristic threats. There is also a group of violations that target actions which disrupt public order, including disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, and obstructing the administration of law. In addition, these offenses often overlap with other charges when they arise in a scenario wherein the defendant assaults or threatens someone during the commission of another offense, such as robbery. The implications of many of these offenses, no matter what circumstances compelled the charges, can be catastrophic and life-altering. Fortunately, there are a host of viable defenses against these charges and a number of diversionary programs that may be available to defendants who meet eligibility criteria.
