"I first met Attorney Joseph (Joe) Rotella when I was an Assistant Essex County (N.J.) Prosecutor in the nineties. Joe and I would eventually try an aggravated sexual assault case against each other. It was a hotly contested battle, which involved an interlocutory appeal to the New Jersey Appellate Division in the middle of trial. Due to his tenacious cross-examination of the State's witnesses, Joe's client was eventually acquitted of all major charges. Since I've entered private practice, Mr. Rotella and I have had a good number of celebrated cases together. I have witnessed Joe's skills first hand and can attest that he is a terrific criminal defense attorney."
