Hunterdon County Criminal Defense Lawyer

Last reviewed . Law current as of October 2026.

Hunterdon County is mostly rural, and its Justice Center at 65 Park Avenue in Flemington holds both the court and the Prosecutor's Office. There is no separate Hunterdon IDRC: the state directory routes Hunterdon's 12-hour program through the Somerset County IDRC. Stops on I-78, Route 31, and Route 202 go to local courts in towns such as Clinton, Readington, and Raritan Township. DCF funds SAFE in Hunterdon as the county's domestic violence program. Lambertville, on the Delaware River, is another town whose cases start in local court. Flemington itself is a small borough entirely surrounded by Raritan Township, so check which of the two your ticket names.
