Both State and Federal Cases
The state courts in New Jersey and the federal court system have different dynamics. Not every defense lawyer can handle both. State courts move fast, and attorneys have to be ready to adjust and keep up with the pace. Conversely, a federal court with a smaller caseload might move slower, but there is a greater need for attention to detail.
It takes a unique skill set to handle both, and doing so is important for clients. Certain cases—notably those involving drug charges—can involve both state and federal charges. Your lawyer needs to be prepared to handle both courtrooms. Attorney Diaz-Cobo is.
Protecting Defendants’ Rights
We work with people charged with a wide range of crimes. Too often, they face abandonment by those closest to them and feel overwhelmed by the system. We’re here to give them both strong professional representation and soft personal compassion. Whether it’s criminal defense or whether your civil rights have been violated by law enforcement, you can rely on the Law Offices of Carlos Diaz-Cobo for vigorous advocacy.
