Morristown & Newton Criminal Defense Attorney
If you are under investigation for criminal activity or have been arrested and charged with a crime, you want an experienced attorney who knows how to get results. The consequences of simply being arrested can be devastating and can limit your options for months or years. A conviction can cost you a substantial amount of money, your freedom and even your job. We can help.
At the Law Office of Howard D. Popper, PC, we bring more than 25 years of practice experience to people across New Jersey, including people charged with most types of crimes. We built our reputation and practice on our commitment to getting the best result for you. When you hire us to defend you in a criminal matter, you will always work directly with attorney Popper, never with an inexperienced associate or a paralegal. We will aggressively fight to protect your constitutional rights, using our considerable knowledge, skill, experience and resources to work toward the outcome you seek.
We offer a free initial consultation. Contact our office online or call us at 973-993-8787 to schedule an appointment.
