Borough of Fairview, New Jersey Municipal and Traffic Court Law Firm
Ignoring your Fairview traffic ticket won’t make it go away. Paying a fine instead of fighting in court is often a mistake. And defending yourself in municipal court for a criminal charge can have serious repercussions. A guilty plea or conviction in municipal court can result in heavy fines, points against your license, a suspension of your driving privileges, community service, a criminal record and possible jail time. At the Reinartz Law Firm we know what’s at stake and we have a history of successfully minimizing these unwelcome outcomes.
Fairview Borough Municipal Court Matters
The municipal court in Fairview handles local criminal and ordinance violations, in addition to traffic matters. Despite the public’s perception of “minor” criminal offenses, some of these charges this court handles are quite serious:
- Driving While Intoxicated
- Reckless Driving
- Leaving the scene of an accident
- Drug Offenses
- Fraud
- Shoplifting
- Domestic violence
- Juvenile crimes
Potential penalties for a disorderly persons offense include up to 6 months in jail and up to $1,000 in fines. Court costs and surcharges may apply as well. Successive convictions can carry mandatory jail sentences.
