Attorney Information
Overview
Upon his graduation from law school, Craig began his legal career as a law clerk for the Honorable M. Allen Vogelson, in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Camden County. He served in this capacity from 1993 to 1994 during which time, Craig was able to observe, court proceedings ranging from motion practice to trial. This position also provided valuable insight into the operations of the court on a day-to-day basis as well as the judicial decision making process.
After completion of his judicial clerkship, Craig entered private practice. Since that time, he has concentrated almost exclusively on handing personal injury matters and workers' compensation claims. Craig has worked in that capacity in order to obtain full and fair compensation for those who have been injured due to the fault of others, and to vindicate the rights of workers who have been injured in the course of their employment.
During this time in private practice, Craig has obtained a vast amount of experience in all phases of litigation from initial investigation of claims, to dealing with insurance companies, to trial. Craig has also successfully represented his clients on appeal, most notably in the reported cases of Market Trans. v. Parisi-Lusardi, 293 N.J. Super 471 (App. Div. 1996) and Warnig v. Atlantic County Special Services, 363 N.J. Super 563 (App. Div. 2003). In addition, Craig has served as the public defender for the Borough of Brooklawn, defending those who were unable to afford their own attorney.
Craig emphasizes the importance of providing personal attention to all of his clients. He is involved in all phases of their case, and is committed to always being available to speak with clients and address their questions and concerns throughout the course of the litigation process.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
