Legal Answers
Q. my boyfriend took my rental car keys while i was sleep am i responsible?
A: You may be facing "obstruction of justice" charges, however, we will need more information to further assist you. You can reach us at 201-766-4800 for a free consultation.
Q. Is title 39, section 4-50 , 4-50.4a. Crime or a Motor Vehicle Charge in the state of New Jersey?
A: It is a traffic offense. It is considered "Quasi-Criminal" because there is exposure to incarceration. However, a DWI conviction will not appear as a "Criminal" conviction on your record. It will appear on your driving record.
