Why Little Ferry Municipal Court Clients Hire Avery & Avery

Two generations of NJ trial practice. Robert W. Avery (admitted 1976) and John S. Avery (joined 2012) cover every stage of a Municipal Court matter — from the first phone call through sentencing or civil disposition. The generational depth means Little Ferry clients get both decades of Bergen County courthouse familiarity and current-generation energy.

Former judge perspective. Robert’s fifteen years as Ridgefield Municipal Court Judge (1986-2000) inform how the firm reads calendars, anticipates prosecutor offers, and prepares defense strategy.

Reported federal case. Delvoye v. Lee, 329 F.3d 330 (3d Cir. 2003) — establishes the firm’s track record beyond purely state-court practice.
