Vigorous representation

Prior to beginning her own practice, Sara Sencer McArdle spent over twenty years as an Essex County Assistant Prosecutor. She is certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a criminal trial attorney. Her experience as a prosecutor provides her with knowledge regarding how to assess a case, reduce charges, understand the prosecution's objectives and what the prosecutor must prove in order to have a successful case. In some situations, rather than being heard in Supreme Court, the charges can be heard in Municipal Court. For example, a charge involving terroristic threats is a felony; it can be referred to Municipal Court as harassment. For those facing the serious charges of a felony, being heard in Municipal Court is a good situation. If convicted in Municipal Court, the maximum jail time is six months.
