In New Jersey, you can incur a $500 fine and an additional 6 months' suspension of your license if convicted of driving under a suspended license. The court may order community service or you may even face jail time (customarily, on your third offense). There are few exceptions to this rule. Generally, you won't face additional sanctions if your license was suspended for non-payment of parking tickets or as a result of faulty notice of suspension by the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission.
At our law office, we thoroughly examine the facts and evidence surrounding your citation to determine that proper procedures were followed and that the evidence supports a conviction under the law. We will examine the stop to verify that the police officer had probable cause to pull you over. We will question witnesses and review the police report to ensure that the authorities obeyed all other constitutional guarantees.
