Q. How to get rid of a warrant?
A: A good lawyer can help your friend by turning her into the court and thus keeping here most likely out of jail on the warrant, then a new court date will be set. That being said, based on what she is charged with again a good lawyer may be able to help keep her out of jail on the original charges. All of this is expensive because it takes time and like a plumber who charges per hour so do lawyers to expect to pay your lawyer a sizable fee to try to avoid any possible jail time. Unfortunately just like a doctor a lawyer can not guarantee the future, but just like you go to a doctor when your sick you need to go to a good lawyer when your freedom and liberty are at stake like your friends.

Q. What does a zero- point traffic violation mean? In what type of situation does this violation apply?
A: Failure to change lanes 39:4-92.2 which should be the violation your charged with has 2 points. I suggest hiring a lawyer to try to get these points reduced. You may be looking at the old law as prior to 2020 it was a zero point ticket. Most of us traffic ticket lawyers offer a free in office consultation, I would suggest that you set one up.
Q. What is the penalty for shoplifting in bloomfeild under 500$
A: Its the same penalty in Bloomfield as in any other court in Essex County or even the whole state; Up to 18 months in Jail, $10,000 fine. and 10 days community service assuming it is a first offense. The community service requirement increases if you have priors.
