Facing Traffic-Related Charges? I Can Help.
Attorney James Patton: Essex County DUI and Traffic Ticket Representation
If you have been arrested and charged with a DUI in Essex County or anywhere in the surrounding area, it is important that you seek legal counsel from a knowledgeable criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. The stakes are too high for you to proceed alone.
James Patton has the skill, knowledge and experience to be designated a certified criminal trial attorney by the New Jersey Supreme Court. This honor is reserved for a select group of lawyers throughout the state.
I represent clients facing a wide range of traffic violations and related charges, including:
- DUI (sometimes referred to as "drunk driving" or "DWI")
- Vehicular homicide
- Traffic tickets for ignoring stop signs, speeding and more
- Reckless driving
