Know This Court
What makes Fieldsboro's court different
Fieldsboro's court is one of the county's smallest — 281 total filings in the July 2025–June 2026 court year, most of them traffic matters off Route 130 and I-295. Small doesn't mean informal: the same court rules, the same points, and the same insurance consequences apply here as in a courtroom forty times this size.
The courtroom at 204 Washington St. does double duty: it also hosts Bordentown City Municipal Court's sessions, on different days. If your summons says Bordentown City but sends you to Fieldsboro, that's why — match the court name and session date on your summons, not just the address.
What We Defend
Charges we defend in Fieldsboro
Each card opens the full guide for that charge: the statute, the real penalties, and the defenses that hold up.
Driving While Suspended
N.J.S.A. 39:3-40 starts at a $500 fine, MVC surcharges and up to six more months of suspension — and climbs to mandatory jail when the suspension traces to a DWI. Many cases begin with a suspension the driver never knew about, and that notice question is where the defense starts.
Driving While Suspended defenseSpeeding Tickets
2, 4 or 5 points depending on speed, with real defenses hiding in the radar and laser certification records.
Speeding Tickets defenseDWI / DUI
Not a points case but a different fight entirely, with license forfeiture, interlock rules, and strict limits on plea deals. The defense lives in the stop, the field tests, and the breath readings.
