About Law Office of Charles Dawkins Jr.LLC
The Law Office of Charles Dawkins Jr., LLC, with offices in Elizabeth and Piscataway, focuses on federal and state criminal defense, personal injury, immigration law, and federal and state appeals -- including appellate work before the Third Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court, and the preparation of habeas corpus briefs. That appellate specialty is notably advanced for a solo or small practice; most local criminal defense attorneys handle trial-level work only and refer appeals elsewhere, while Dawkins takes cases through the federal appeals process directly. Serving Union, Essex, Middlesex, Hudson, Mercer, and Camden counties, the firm handles the kind of high-stakes matters -- serious criminal charges, significant personal injury claims, and immigration proceedings -- where the consequences of an unfavorable outcome are severe and appellate options matter. Attorney Dawkins' combined focus on trial-level criminal defense and Supreme Court and Third Circuit appellate practice under one roof lets clients keep the same counsel from an initial charge through a potential appeal, rather than switching attorneys mid-case.
Attorney Charles Dawkins Jr., an Ohio native, completed his undergraduate studies with honors at Ohio University before earning his law degree at American University's Washington College of Law. He has practiced law for more than 20 years, building the Law Office of Charles Dawkins Jr., LLC into a firm with a specific focus on criminal defense, personal injury, immigration, and federal appellate work across Union, Essex, Middlesex, Hudson, Mercer, and Camden counties. Over two decades of practice, Dawkins has expanded the firm to serve clients from two office locations, Elizabeth and Piscataway, while developing a specific appellate practice reaching the Third Circuit Court of Appeals and the U.S. Supreme Court -- a level of specialization built up through sustained, long-term focus on criminal and appellate law rather than a general practice.
