A tragic accident earlier this month left one man dead. According to reports,
two men are now facing charges of death by auto after the car accident
near MetLife stadium in New Jersey. They were both charged, although only
one of the men allegedly hit the motorcyclist that died in the accident.
In cases involving a tragic death, it is important to be sensitive to
the victim’s family, but also remember that those charged have rights
that must be preserved.

The two men were driving luxury cars back to a track near the stadium that
was set up to allow people to test drive their dream cars. This accident
will likely require a lengthy investigation. Throughout that investigation,
police will likely question the two men who are accused of the crime.
It is important that their rights are preserved throughout the legal process.

Sometimes people are misinformed of their rights during an interrogation
and they might say something that could incriminate them. It is important
when dealing with charges in New Jersey that people have the opportunity
to defend themselves. It might be helpful to speak with a criminal defense
attorney who can help explain your rights to you and make sure they aren’t
violated during any investigations.

During a highly publicized case, an attorney can work to control damage
to a person’s image while they are awaiting court proceedings. They
can also make sure all the proceedings go according to the law, and that
the person has a chance at a fair trial.
