Have you been arrested or charged with a crime? Have you been charged with DWI or a traffic offense? Are you the subject of a criminal investigation? If so, you need a tough and experienced local criminal defense attorney. I am Attorney John W. Tumelty and I have practiced criminal law in South Jersey for 25 years. I am a New Jersey Supreme Court Certified Criminal Trial Attorney. I am a former N.J. Deputy Attorney General and former Atlantic County Assistant Prosecutor. My practice is exclusively criminal defense.
I understand what it takes to successfully investigate and defend against criminal charges. I have an outstanding record of success in defending all types of criminal charges. I have won “not guilty” verdicts in an array of criminal trials including murder, commercial bribery, CDS offenses, theft and sexual assault.
I recently won a “not guilty” verdict in a murder trial held in Atlantic County Superior Court. The case was State v. Helena Hendricks and my client was charged with multiple crimes including murder, felony murder and armed robbery. The State alleged that my client participated in a robbery-homicide of the Maritime Bar located in Atlantic City. After a three-week trial, the jury found my client “not guilty” of all charges including murder.
I have the experience required to look into the facts of your particular case and lay-out a game plan for a winning defense. I will meet with you face-to-face in my office and discuss all aspects of your case. I will explain the legal process in clear and plain terms. I will personally be at your side throughout the entire legal process.
