Defending New Jersey College Students Charged With Possession of Marijuana and Other Crimes

College Students With Drug and Alcohol Charges

If you are a college student charged with drunk driving, possession of marijuana or a disorderly person offense, the consequences of pleading guilty or being found guilty by a judge can be devastating. In addition to paying large fines and possibly losing your license, you may end up with a criminal record that could jeopardize your chances of finding the job you want after graduation. If you are planning for a career in law enforcement or government service, those consequences could be near fatal.

Protecting Your Rights And Your Future

A skilled and knowledgeable lawyer can represent you in matters concerning underage drinking or drugs. Not even a 4.0 GPA will help you when you are dealing with the New Jersey criminal justice system. But a determined, skilled and knowledgeable lawyer can help.

Learn Your Rights

Whether you are facing a DUI, drug charge, shoplifting charge or reckless driving charge, the sooner you retain the services of Feeley & Sayegh LLC, the sooner its lawyers can get started investigating and building a strong defense for your case.

First-time drug offenders with no criminal history may be entitled to have the charges against them disposed of through a conditional discharge or Pre-Trial Intervention (PTI). Upon successful completion of the program, the charges will be dropped.

Flexible Scheduling and Payment Plans for College Students

This office understands that most college students have hectic course schedules, receive some form of financial aid and work part-time jobs to make ends meet. However, you should not be fooled into thinking that you don't have the time to consult with an attorney or plead guilty to the charges because you think you cannot afford to hire a lawyer. Accordingly, Feeley & Sayegh LLC is happy to offer the following accommodations to full- or part-time college students:

  • In-office consultations and meetings after hours and on weekends
  • Promptly returning all phone calls and e-mails
  • Contacting you via your preferred contact method (e.g., phone, e-mail, etc.)
  • Contacting you at predesignated times
  • Flexible fee agreements and payment plans (e.g., "flat fees," credit card installment payments, etc.)
  • Discounted legal fees

NOTE: Discounted rates, alternative fee agreements and payment plans are available only to students who can demonstrate a financial need or hardship (e.g., you receive financial aid) and have proof of current college registration on either a full- or part-time basis.
