New Jersey College Arrest Defense Attorneys
Defending College Students Against Criminal Charges and Disciplinary Actions in New Jersey
Colleges are meant to be institutions of higher learning; however, they also serve as rites of passage, periods of transition during which young people can learn and grow outside of the classroom. At college, students have the opportunity to participate in and attend a broad range of activities, such as school sporting events, clubs, concerts, and social gatherings on and off-campus. While these activities can provide memories for a lifetime, they can also lead to issues when large groups of people come together, particularly when alcohol is being consumed. If you are caught in the unfortunate circumstance of being arrested on campus, you may face both criminal charges and disciplinary proceedings at the school. A negative outcome in either of these venues can lead to severe repercussions, including fines, a charge on your criminal record, suspension, expulsion, and even jail time. When one mistake, false accusation, or misunderstanding threatens to derail your future, it is critical to have an experienced defense attorney on your side.
