Murder/Homicide

Proven New Jersey Criminal Defense Attorney

When you have been charged with murder, choosing the right defense attorney can make a significant difference in the outcome of your case. To fight this serious accusation, you need a tough, experienced lawyer who is committed to protecting your rights.

My name is John W. Hartmann. At my office in Princeton Junction, New Jersey, I aggressively fight for the rights and freedom of individuals accused of involvement in a homicide.

Representing Clients in Mercer County and Surrounding Counties

Armed with 15 years of criminal defense experience, I will represent you against charges of:

  • Criminal homicide
  • First degree murder
  • Second degree murder
  • Manslaughter
  • Aggravated manslaughter

Building Tough Defense Strategies for You

I have been practicing in the area criminal law exclusively since 1994. Since that time, I have been involved in over 40 trials in 15 years and have a proven track record of success.

As your defense lawyer, I will not simply accept the first offer the prosecutors make. I will prepare your case to go to trial, fighting for your rights and freedom. In a homicide or murder defense, nothing is easy. However with careful research of the evidence, skillful case preparation and a committed defense, it is possible to reach a favorable outcome.

Understanding the Opposition's Tactics

I have spent 15 years as an attorney practicing criminal law exclusively. Therefore, I know how the opposing side operates. I will use the knowledge I gained during my years in the courtroom to help build a strong defense strategy for your case.

Tenacious Defense Representation
