No, New Jersey is not a community property state. New Jersey is classified as a common law state. The difference between common law and community property systems centers around the property rights possessed by married persons. In a common law system, each spouse owns whatever he or she earns. Under a community property system, one-half of the earnings of each spouse is considered by the other spouse.

In order for the attorney/client relationship to work effectively, the client must be truthful in all discussions with his or her attorney. The client must give the attorney both the favorable and unfavorable facts pertaining to the legal matter, and must provide copies of all relevant information and documents to the attorney. The attorney must be informed of any changes in the client’s situation, and the client should be informed of the progress in the legal matter.

The attorney’s primary task is to protect the client’s legal rights and to serve as an objective legal advisor. Attorneys must use their best efforts on behalf of their clients, but they cannot guarantee particular results in cases. The attorney should keep his or her client informed of the status of the client’s legal problem, and should provide copies of all correspondence and documents prepared on the client’s behalf or received from another party. An attorney may not settle the client’s case without the prior approval of the client. An attorney’s conduct must comply with the New Jersey Rules of Professional Conduct.

Yes, you can be absolutely sure that it will be strictly confidential. This is because the Rules of Professional Conduct in New Jersey provide for an attorney-client privilege: the client or prospective client can freely discuss personal and confidential matters with one of our attorneys, paralegals or any other Garces, Grabler & LeBrocq employee without concern that what we are told will “leave the firm”. Even if the client does not ultimately retain us, the information that you provide at the initial conference is still held in strict confidence.

Individuals generally may consult with and be represented by an attorney whenever they choose. The relationship is created by an agreement that the client will pay a fee in exchange for certain services to be provided by the attorney. When an individual hires or retains a particular attorney, and the attorney agrees to represent that individual, an attorney/client relationship is created. The client will be responsible for paying attorney’s fees as set forth in the retainer or fee agreement. In cases involving a claim for personal injury, the client’s responsibility to pay a fee to Garces, Grabler & LeBrocq is contingent on a monetary recovery – no recovery, no fee.

In most cases you can. Of course, you must have a valid driver’s license for you to continue driving while you are waiting for your Court date. Like all criminal matters, you as the driver are presumed innocent until found guilty. However, DUI and DWI charges are among the most serious of all motor vehicle violations. Not only will you be facing a mandatory suspension of your driving privileges if found guilty, but you will have to pay a fine and substantial money surcharges to New Jersey. And, depending on the circumstances, you may also be sentenced to jail time.
