Posted by steven | November 03, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Domestic Violence

Best criminal defensive attorney in South Jersey

this guy is unbelievable. I just was charged with two gun cases rising out out of it domestic violence case. my ex-girlfriend lied on me, got my mom involved. and generally messed up my life for the last two years. Jeff came in got involved took control the case and I’m walking out of the courtroom w...ith a short period of probation and the gun charges dismissed. This guy worked with me and my mom on a payment plan, talk to my mom all the time, put her at ease, kept me on the street so I could pay the payment plan. And now just hit the ball out of the park. He really did an amazing job and I knew what was going on the entire time. Going to court sucks and going into the courthouse is even worse, but he was always there to make me feel better and make my mom feel better. I would definitely recommend him to anybody for any criminal matter. If he deals with these prosecutors the same way he deals with insurance defense attorneys. I’m sure he would also be amazing for any personal injury Worker’s Compensation case. I live down in Sicklerville and he handles cases all over Gloucester County Camden County Burlington County. I’ve even given his name already to a bunch of people who have called me and said he’s the bomb. I would absolutely go with him without exception. I know this firsthand for my own personal knowledge. Anybody that’s talking negative about him doesn’t know what they are saying were their cases so bad they’re gonna get screwed and the attorney can help them.

"I have known Jeffrey since 1990. I have referred both criminal and personal injury matters to Jeffrey. The client referrals from my firm to his have been highly satisfied with his work ethic and tenacity. Simply stated, Jeff does not quit until he gets the results clients deserve. He is aggressive and intransigent, when the case requires it. I highly recommend him and his team!"
