Before opening my private practice in 1987, I was a former Deputy Attorney General in Pennsylvania and Prosecutor in Atlantic County, New Jersey. My passion for justice and my commitment to clients have made me a well-respected criminal defense advocate, well known for upholding the best interests of the people I represent.
No matter the charges, I fight to protect your freedom
I understand that finding yourself in legal trouble is frightening, and you put an enormous amount of faith in the attorney you hire to represent you. In return, you deserve to be treated as more than just another case. It’s important to me to treat each client with respect, dignity and compassion – from the high-profile cases featured on the front page of the newspaper to everyday cases of DUI, domestic violence or other charges. I work closely with you, keeping the channels of communication open so that you correctly understand your circumstances, the legal process and what to expect. I pride myself on my knowledge of statutes and precedents and work hard to achieve the best possible outcome for every client I represent.

THE BEST. PERIOD.
Mr. Glassman winning my case gave me my life back. After almost a year of constant worry and uncertainty, I was cleared of all the serious charges (one of them including aggravated assault) against me thanks to him working tirelessly to prove my innocence. He was there explaining the entire process e...

David Jay Glassman: The “Best Case Scenario” Lawyer.
I received three citations at once and Mr. Glassman was the absolute best lawyer – both for that job, and in general the best that I could have asked for.

Incredible
I recently hired Mr. Glassman for my case specifically because all the other lawyers were way overpriced for such a small case. So I found Mr. Glassman and he was very driven from the first time we spoke, and he promised that he would take care of my situation and he did. Mr. Glassman went above and ...
"I’ve had the pleasure of working with David over the past few years on a variety of criminal defense and immigration cases.
