Contact his Tom's River law office for defense against felony charges in state and federal criminal courts in New Jersey, New York, or Washington, DC. As a criminal trial attorney, Mr. Schlendorf also handles criminal appeals.
Defense on any Criminal Charge for a Violent Crime
David T. Schlendorf has defended clients facing all types of felony violent crime charges, including:
- Homicide, murder, attempted murder, manslaughter and vehicular manslaughter
- Assault, aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon
- Kidnapping
- Carjacking, armed robbery
- Felony drug cases that often include weapons charges
- Any crime that involves a gun
At both the state and federal level, if you "use" a firearm when committing a crime, merely by having it on your person, you will be facing additional charges and penalties.
Proactive • Aggressive • Diligent
Attorney Schlendorf is a certified criminal trial attorney by the New Jersey Supreme Court. He will not hesitate to litigate your case in court if that's the best way to obtain a good result.
He is proactive, aggressive and diligent. He doesn't rely on the state's investigation; he interviews all witnesses and has his own experts review the reports compiled by the state. There is always another side to a story. As your felony defense attorney it's his job to bring your side to the prosecutor, the judge and, if necessary, a jury.
Strategy is important in felony cases involving violent crimes. Attorney Schlendorf has been involved in many trials, both as a defense attorney and as a former prosecutor. He understands what's important to a jury and a judge. He also understands when the best option is to plea bargain to a lower level crime or a lesser penalty. His goal is to maximize the positive aspects of your case to obtain the best results, without wasting your money or time pursuing dead end strategies.
