Robert J. Pinizzotto, Esquire

Bob Pinizzotto was born and raised in Hammonton, New Jersey where he maintains his law office, Pinizzotto~Hill, L.L.C., Attorneys-at-Law.  After attending Rutgers University, obtaining a B.A. in Political Science, Bob attended the University of Dayton School of Law where he earned a Juris Doctorate degree in 1983.  Bob was then employed as a Judicial Law Clerk to the H onorable Rudolph J. Rossetti, J.S.C. and, among other duties as a clerk, worked on hundreds of municipal court appeals for the Camden Vicinage.

After working for two law firms with heavy concentrations in the municipal court arena, Bob went "solo" eventually leading to his partnership with Ralph B. Hill,
III, Esquire.  During his approximate 25 years of practice in New Jersey, Bob has served as the appointed municipal prosecutor in many jurisdictions, as well as having served as public defender and municipal solicitor.  In addition to holding the "appointed " position of municipal prosecutor, he has also prosecuted for many others when called upon in many municipalities.

Bob is a member of the New State Bar Association, the Atlantic County Bar Association, the Atlantic County Municipal Prosecutors' Association (former Past President) and is a Founding Member and Immediate Past President of the New Jersey State Municipal Prosecutors' Association.  He is licensed to practice law not only in the State of New Jersey, but in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of Maine.

Bob has been a presenter/lecturer for numerous entities including the State of New Jersey Attorney Generals' Office, the New Jersey State Municipal Prosecutors' Association and various continuing legal education entities.

Although an experienced municipal prosecutor and municipal court practitioner, Bob would like to stress to all law enforcement personnel that the answers to questions posed, although researched and having a basis in New Jersey law, and based on his training and experience, officers should verify their actions with
the command staff of their individual departments and should seek the legal advice and opinions of their respective municipal professionals.
