Our Firm

Nugent Law opened its doors with the intention of providing legal help to individuals when they need it most. To this end, we offer counsel in matters of personal injury and criminal defense and have earned recognition for successfully handling difficult cases — The New York Times, for example, has listed Charles H. Nugent, Jr., among the region’s leading defense lawyers, and he is listed in New Jersey’s Super Lawyers directory.

A Personal Approach To The Law

Our firm works closely with our clients. It is important that we understand your side of the story  so that we can best protect your interests during legal proceedings. We offer guidance at every step, and help our clients navigate around the most common procedural mistakes.

Serving the region for more than 38 years, we have developed professional relationships with local counsel and judges — relationships that greatly benefit our clients. We know how the opposition approaches a given case, and are adept at negotiating favorable outcomes for our clients, whether it means reducing one’s criminal charges, or maximizing a client’s personal injury claim. If no settlement can be reached, we are always prepared to assert our clients’ rights in the courtroom.
