Jersey City Criminal Defense Attorney
Have You Been Arrested for a Crime in Jersey City?
Whether you have been arrested for a criminal offense, or if you are under investigation you are probably very nervous about what will happen next. Unfortunately, being a suspect in a criminal investigation is not a good thing, and you need to make sure that your legal rights are not violated by law enforcement or the prosecution.
Even though the legal system attempts to catch the right person, it is not foolproof. If the legal system didn't make mistakes, innocent people wouldn't be wrongfully convicted and sent to prison for a crime they didn't commit, only to be freed years later when new DNA evidence exonerated them. If you want to take every action possible to protect yourself, you will need to retain the services of a seasoned Jersey City criminal defense lawyer.

In each case that I take on, I make sure that I provide my client with the highest level of attention and dedication so they can have the best possible chances of achieving satisfactory case results.

Mr. Porreca did an awesome job with my case. I always felt safe with him. He is straight forward, plays close to the vest and turns around with winning results! I would recommend him to anyone in my family or any of my friends. My charges of allowing intoxicated person to drive and unopened container were dismissed thanks to the hard work and dedication he gives to his clients. His retainer was extremely fair.
