Edison Courthouses
Last updated: November 12, 2013
Edison, a township considered “one of the best places to live in the United States.” Its native son and namesake, prolific inventor Thomas Edison, set up his research laboratory here. You can thank the “Wizard of Menlo Park” for illuminating your daily life with a light bulb and your movie-going pleasure with the first motion picture camera, among his 1,093 patents.
However, as Middlesex County residents know, creativity and inventiveness won’t necessarily help you solve legal problems. Almost everyone, at some point, needs to go to court for one reason or another. If you are a juror, witness, or party in a case in Middlesex, Somerset, Hudson or Warren Vicinages, here’s a list of courthouses in your area.
