We have employed the services of forensic accountants on matrimonial and criminal cases as well as forensic psychologists and forensic psychiatrists on Tier Classification Hearings (Megan&#39;s Law) and Competency to Stand Trial Hearings. We have also utilized the services of DNA experts as well as experts in the field of recorded evidence. We regularly employ the services of private investigators (mostly retired investigators of County Prosecutor Offices) who work closely with us in defense of our client on criminal cases. The investigators utilized by the firm have many years of experience and are responsible for interviewing witnesses and taking witness statements under oath in the presence of a court reporter. They may also be called upon to take polygraph examinations of certain clients and testify as a defense witness at trial. In short, we utilize the best available resources to achieve the most favorable results on behalf of our clients.&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />	<br />	<strong><br />	STRATEGY OF FIRM IN CRIMINAL CASES:</strong><br />	<br />	<strong>Clifford E. Lazzaro &amp; Associates, P.C.</strong> aggressively defends the rights of the accused at every stage of the criminal proceedings. The accused should always invoke his or her <strong>Fifth Amendment Right</strong> to remain silent whenever the police seek to question that person. No matter how great the pressure the police place on a person to induce that person to make an incriminating statement, or any type of statement at all, the person should exercise his or her right to remain silent and immediately contact a lawyer.<br />	<br />	The <strong>criminal defense strategy</strong> after a person has been formally charged with a criminal offense is to seek <strong>dismissal </strong>of the charges. Criminal charges can sometimes be dismissed through a motion for probable cause (pre-indictment), a motion to dismiss the indictment, a motion to suppress evidence, administrative dismissal by the Prosecutor&#39;s Office or Pre-Trial Intervention.<br />	<br />	A <strong>Guilty Plea</strong> should never be considered unless diligent efforts are made to have the case dismissed. When those diligent efforts are unsuccessful in achieving dismissal of the charges, a person should consider a guilty plea or a trial by jury. A plea of guilty should never be considered when the person charged is innocent. In this country, the accused is entitled to a presumption of innocence and the burden is on the Government or the State to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Having experienced and aggressive counsel like <strong>Clifford E. Lazzaro</strong> by your side at trial is essential to maximizing the accused&#39;s chances of acquittal. An <strong>experienced trial attorney</strong> like <strong>Clifford E Lazzaro</strong> can influence a jury and lead the jury to a <strong>Not Guilty Verdict when the Government or State fails to meet it&#39;s burden of proof of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. </strong><br />	<br />	A <strong>Guilty Plea</strong> is sometimes entered when the evidence of guilt is overwhelming against the accused. In this instance, a guilty plea is entered for damage control purposes. A guilty plea can limit the number of criminal charges and reduce the sentencing exposure on most cases. On <strong>federal cases</strong>, experienced counsel can argue that sentencing should be outside the advisory sentencing guideline system when the nature and circumstances of the offense and the history and characteristics of the defendant justify same. In addition, statutory increases in the guideline offense level sometimes are not justified when they do not properly reflect the defendant&#39;s culpability.<br />	<br />	<strong>Clifford E Lazzaro, Esq.</strong> has handled numerous <strong>Fourth Amendment Suppression Hearings</strong> involving such issues as the legality of automobile searches conducted without a warrant and not based on probable cause but solely on the arrest of a person unable to endanger the police or destroy evidence. Courts have held that those searches are not justified under any exception to the warrant requirement and are unreasonable. If large quantities of drugs or numerous weapons are recovered by the police, the accused should immediately consult with an attorney to determine whether or not the accused&#39;s <strong>Fourth Amendment Right To Be Free From Unreasonable Search And Seizure</strong> has been violated.<br />	<br />	<strong>Clifford E Lazzaro, Esq.</strong> has handled <strong>child pornography cases</strong> on both state and federal levels. The dispositions on those cases speak for themselves. Needless to say, the firm has much experience in this area. If you are charged with child pornography or other sex offenses which have Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 or Megan&#39;s Law implications, call for an appointment. In <strong>United States vs. L B</strong>, the defendant was charged and plead guilty to one count of possession of child pornography&nbsp; pursuant to 18 USC 2252A (a) (5) (B), a Class C felony. The defendant was found to be in possession of over 600 images of child pornography stored on a computer hard drive and also over 600 images of child pornography stored on a computer disc on June 29, 2006. The defendant faced up to 10 years in federal custody and a fine of up to $250,000.00. The Total Offense Level under the federal sentencing guidelines was 24 and the Guideline Range for imprisonment was 51 to 63 months. As a result of defendant&#39;s <strong>Pre-Sentence Report Memorandum</strong>, the Court imposed a variance to a level 19 and the defendant was sentenced on April 8, 2008 to a term of 30 months. The sentence imposed by the Court was below the advisory guideline range of 51 to 63 months because of the nature and circumstances of the offense and the characteristics of the defendant did not properly reflect the defendant&#39;s culpability. <strong>Clifford E Lazzaro, Esq. </strong>handled the plea and sentencing in the above matter.<br />	<br />	<br />	<strong>SUCCESS ON TRIALS:</strong><br />	<br />	<strong>State v S R, Union County Superior Court.</strong><br />	<br />	The defendant was charged by way of a four (4) count indictment with one count of second degree sexual assault against a minor, one count of second degree attempted sexual assault, one count of third degree endangering the welfare of a child and one count of third degree attempted endangering the welfare of a child. Defendant was subject to 85% sentencing of between 5 and 10 years on each second degree count under the No Early Release Act (NERA) and Megan&#39;s Law sentencing. After a 2 week trial in early <strong>August, 2010</strong>, the jury deliberated approx. 3 hours and 20 minutes and the defendant was found not guilty on all 4 counts.<br />	<br />	<strong>State v F G, Union County Superior Court.</strong><br />	<br />	The defendant was charged with one count of second degree sexual assault. Defendant was subject to NERA (85%) sentencing between 5 and 10 years and Megan&#39;s Law sentencing. The rape trial lasted approx. one (1) week. During this <strong>November, 2010</strong> trial, the State offered to amend (dismiss) the second degree sexual assault count to third degree terroristic threats with a recommendation for a probationary sentence. Defendant accepted the amended probationary plea which no longer had NERA (85%) and Megan&#39;s Law consequences.<br />	<br />	<br />	<strong>SUCCESS ON PLEAS:</strong><br />	<br />	<strong>State v A E, Monmouth County Superior Court.</strong><br />	<br />	The defendant was charged with three (3) counts in an indictment with first degree racketeering, first degree conspiracy to commit racketeering, and second degree witness tampering. The defendant faced NERA (85%) sentencing of 40 years on the first degree racketeering counts not including applicable extended terms. The negotiated plea at the end of <strong>June, 2010</strong> resulted in dismissal of both of the first degree racketeering counts and a guilty plea to witness tampering as amended to a third degree offense. At sentencing, the defendant received a 4 year flat term New Jersey State Prison (NJSP). The defendant is alleged to be a <strong>Four (4) Star General in the Bloods Gang</strong>.<br />	<br />	<strong>State v J S, Monmouth County Superior Court.</strong><br />	<br />	The defendant issued over $550,000.00 in Bad Checks to Monmouth Raceway Track. The checks were issued over a several month period of time. The defendant initially faced second degree sentencing exposure between 5 and 10 years in New Jersey State Prison (NJSP). The negotiated plea in August of 2010 amended the charge to one count of Issuing a Bad Check, a third degree offense. At sentencing in November of 2010, the defendant received <strong>non-custodial, no jail probation</strong> with the requirement that he make restitution of $2000.00 per month over the course of a 5 year period of probation.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />	<br />	<br />	<strong>SUCCESS ON APPEALS:</strong><br />	<br />	Guilty verdicts can sometimes be reversed at the Appellate level and Clifford E. Lazzaro &amp; Associates, P.C. thoroughly reviews trial transcripts in order to ascertain the viability of appeal. Issues on appeal can include prosecutorial misconduct, ineffective assistance of counsel or errors made by the Court on the law.<br />	<br />	In <strong>State v. Anthony Conigliaro</strong>, 356 N.J. Super. 54 (App.Div.2002), the Defendant, was charged with two counts of criminal sexual contact, N.J.S.A. 2C:14-3(b), and two counts of child abuse, N.J.S.A. 9:6-3. After a jury trial, defendant was found guilty on one count of each charge. Concurrent sentences of fifteen months imprisonment were imposed on each count along with appropriate penalties. Defendant was also required to register under Megan&#39;s Law and to provide a blood sample for DNA analysis. Clifford E. Lazzaro &amp; Associates, P.C. handled the appeal and served only as appellate counsel. In a published decision, the Appellate Division reversed the Defendant&#39;s guilty verdict and remanded the matter back to the Trial Court on the grounds that the admission by the Trial Court of a writing into evidence as an &quot;excited utterance&quot; under New Jersey Rule of Evidence 803(c)(2) as a hearsay exception was reversible error, as it was not cumulative, and went with the jury as an exhibit during deliberations.<br />	<br />	<br />	<strong>Clifford E. Lazzaro &amp; Associates, P.C. has successfully defended victims of Racial Profiling:</strong><br />	<br />	In<strong> State v. Aloysius Paul</strong>, A-4731-98T1, following a jury trial, the Defendant was convicted of first degree possession of one kilo of cocaine with intent to distribute and sentenced to a fifteen year sentence with five years to be served before parole eligibility. Clifford E. Lazzaro &amp; Associates, P.C. handled the appeal and served only as appellate counsel. In the appeal, the Defendant claimed ineffective assistance of counsel for previous counsel&#39;s failure to raise the issue of racial profiling. The Appellate Division found that the issue of racial profiling was properly preserved and ordered that the matter be remanded to the Trial Court. The Defendant&#39;s guilty verdict was subsequently vacated.<br />	<br />	In<strong> State v. Ryan Scott</strong>, Indictment No. 00-01-0083, the Defendant, an African American, was stopped at a convenience store located at a service area on the New Jersey Turnpike. Two New Jersey State Troopers stopped the Defendant and requested his driving credentials. In the police report, the troopers cited illegal parking by the defendant, along a yellow painted curb directly in front of the convenience store, as the reason for the stop. The defendant produced valid driving credentials. The Trooper requested that the defendant consent to a search of the vehicle. The defendant refused to sign a consent to search form. The troopers brought in a narcotic detector dog to &quot;sniff&quot; the vehicle for the presence of narcotics despite the lack consent either orally or in writing from the Defendant. Based on the results of &quot;sniff&quot;, the troopers obtained a search warrant for the vehicle. A search of the vehicle was conducted, whereupon approximately 37 oz. of crack cocaine was recovered. In July, 1999, the Defendant and the co-defendant passenger, were indicted on first degree possession of cocaine with the intent to distribute, third degree possession of cocaine, and second degree Conspiracy. Clifford E. Lazzaro &amp; Associates, P.C. maintained a position that the New Jersey State Police were exercising a system of profiling African Americans which they applied to this vehicle, violating the Defendant&#39;s Fourteenth Amendment rights of Equal Protection and Due Process not to be discriminated against due to his minority status. Clifford E. Lazzaro &amp; Associates, P.C. filed a Motion Requesting Discovery Alleging Racial Profiling by the New Jersey State Police. Subsequent to the filing of the motion, the New Jersey Division of Criminal Justice filed a Motion to Dismiss the Indictment against the Defendant &quot;in the interest of justice&quot; due to the allegations of Racial Profiling. By Order of the Honorable Walter R. Barisonek, J.S.C., of the Union County Superior Court, the Defendant&#39;s Indictment was dismissed.<br />	<br />	<strong>Clifford E.
