Mr. Fay is a partner at William Proetta Criminal Law. Prior to becoming a partner, he served as a Deputy Attorney General in the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General, overseeing a wide spectrum of criminal prosecutions from investigation through trial. This dual perspective—having prosecuted and now defended—shapes his strategic, results-driven approach.

William Fay brings years of dedicated experience to criminal defense, passionately representing individuals charged with criminal and DWI offenses throughout New Jersey.

Mr. Fay prosecuted countless cases from the initial investigation up to trial. His extensive experience has provided him with a distinct understanding of the Criminal Justice System in New Jersey. He is dedicated in his work to criminal defense, which includes matters in Federal Court (United States District Court), Burlington County Superior Court and surrounding areas including local Municipal Courts.

Some of the more common cases he handles include aggravated assault, armed robbery, burglary, drug distribution, drug possession, driving while intoxicated, shoplifting, eluding, carjacking and shoplifting. Mr. Fay’s main objective is to obtain the best results possible for his clients.

Every case requires a different approach. Whether we attack the case in an adversarial manner with countless motions or utilize a deft-hand, Mr. Fay will always demonstrate zealous advocacy for his clients. It should be an expectation that your attorney is protecting your constitutional rights.
