Joseph D'Aversa

Joe has engaged in the general practice of law since becoming an attorney in 1995 specializing in Personal Injury, Workers’ Compensation, Criminal Law and Municipal Court Practice. Having spent the first five years of his legal profession as a municipal prosecutor, Joe gained invaluable insight into the New Jersey municipal court system which has served him well in representing those who have been issued traffic summonses from speeding to Driving While Intoxicated and disorderly persons offenses from marijuana possession to simple assault. Such prosecutorial experience lead to several appointments as special prosecutor for governmental disciplinary hearings. As a criminal defense attorney, Joe succeeded at the New Jersey Appellate Court level in overturning the denial of his client’s admission into the New Jersey Pre-Trial Intervention (PTI) Program and, thus, ensuring that all future applications in the County where said denial occurred are evaluated properly. Joe also obtained favorable results for those facing harsh criminal penalties. In the area of personal injury, Joe has recovered substantial damages for many of his clients.
