Municipal City Court

A municipal court usually only has jurisdiction over cases that occur within the boundaries of its municipality. Municipal courts in New Jersey are considered courts of limited jurisdiction. These courts have responsibility for handling motor vehicle offenses, such as illegal parking tickets, speeding tickets, and driving while intoxicated (DWI). They also oversee cases involving minor criminal offenses, such as simple assault, trespassing, and shoplifting. In New Jersey, these minor crimes are known as disorderly persons offenses. Cases involving hunting, fishing, and boating laws, as well as minor disputes between neighbors, are also heard in municipal court.

It is usually best to retain a local attorney for a municipal court matter since they are most familiar with the schedule and procedures of a city’s municipal court. The Law Office of Frank Marciano is one block from the Hoboken Courthouse and a few minutes from the Jersey City Courthouse. I often appear in these two courts. Due to my geographic proximity to both courts, I can offer a reasonable fee for my services. If you need help, do not hesitate to call my office.

Client Reviews

I initially chose Frank because of how close his office is to the municipal court. Best decision ever. His staff was on top of the matter and he literally knew everyone at the courthouse. He was able to get my charge dropped to a lower penalty and is currently working on my expungement. Definitely...

I hired Frank for help in purchasing a multi-family home. To make a long story short, Frank advised me against the initial property I had come to see him about and it was the best decision I could have ever made. He went out of his way to make sure I was making a wise /secure investment and saved me...
