- Divorce
- Criminal DefenseComplex cases are charged by the hour, or by the fee, depending upon which the client chooses. In criminal defense, most people like to know what it’s going to cost for the whole case up front, and we will be glad to give you that price at our very first meeting.
- DUI/DWIFees are difficult to advertise, as they are usually set on a case by case basis. For instance, on a DUI, the fees range anywhere from $1500 to $5000 depending upon what is involved. If I have to litigate a motion to suppress the Breathalyzer or blood results, lack of probable cause for the stop, etc., then it’s going to be quite involved with multiple hearings. Those types of cases are near the top of the fee situation. If it’s simply going to be a negotiated deal, then you are at the bottom.

- Murder
- HomicideWhether it be a DUI, theft, drug case or homicide, if it occurs in Southeastern Pennsylvania or Southern New Jersey, Chuck is the go to guy for the best advice and representation you can find.
- Manslaughter
- Personal InjuryWhen it comes to civil cases, such as contracts, injunctions, business representation etc., hourly fees will apply the same as criminal cases. However, in PERSONAL INJURY matters, the fees vary anywhere from 25-40% of the recovery we get for the client. Factors to be considered are things such as what state it is in (i.e. PA or NJ), whether the plaintiff is a juvenile or an adult, whether it is an automobile accident or a products liability case, whether it settles out of court without the need to initiate liigation, etc., etc., etc. In all these matters, the client never pays a cent out of their pocket, and only pay us if we recover money for them. All fees are spelled out in writing, signed by the attorney handling the matter before work is begun.
