Q. Arrested under mistaken identity; seek legal guidance.
A: You need a criminal lawyer first and a civil lawyer for any civil suit. Just because you did not live in the State to the Police or Prosecutors mean nothing as you could have travelled to NJ to commit the crime and you will have to prove you were not in NJ (yes the law says otherwise, but lets look at reality not the text book) The defense you raise as to birth date and social security number are of course more relevant. Get yourself a good lawyer that is the only thing you can do to recitfy this unfortunate situation you are in. Remember the better the lawyer you hire, the better your chances are of getting out of this with a good result.
Q. Received tickets for hit-and-run, unaware of incident, with a court date scheduled.
A: You are facing up to 30 days in jail and a 6 months mandatory loss of license if you are convicted of leaving the scene of an accident in NJ. I thus must suggest that you hire a good lawyer. Unfortunately, in NJ a presumption exists that if you damage a vehicle with $250.00 or more worth of damage that you are presumed to have knowledge that you were in an accident. Obviously, being in your car with the windows closed and only damaging the mirror of another vehicle could have meant that you never heard or felt anything. Your best defense is to hire a good lawyer that knows the leaving the scene of an accident law like the back of his or her hand. Your attorney will get all the information for you about the accident how it happened, whether any witnesses exist and what if any video proof exists from the police. They will generally not just give it to you the accused, without a court order or by you following the court rules for its proper production. Most of us traffic/criminal lawyers offer a free in office consultation. But choose your lawyer wisely. You don't want the closest one or the cheapest one, you want the best one, as a good lawyer in this field will know the judges and prosecutors in all jurisdictions in the State, its really not that big of a State. Lastly remember, just like in any other profession you generally get the quality of lawyer you pay for so get the best if the result is important to you because you have a lot at stake, not just money, but your right to drive for the nexst 6 months if convicted. ...

Q. Consequences of driving without a license and using a false name?
A: The answer really depends on the statute number she is charged with, which you have not provided but she could be looking at up to 60 days in Jail and 6 months loss of her license. Make sure she gets a good lawyer she needs one, this is not a type of case you should try to help yourself on as the consequences can be severe. Most of us traffic ticket lawyers offer a free in office consultation. I would suggest that you set one up.
