Possession, possession with intent, prescription cases. Many drug cases turn on one question: was the search legal?
Most drug cases start with a search of a car, a home, a phone or a person. If police did not have a lawful reason to search, the evidence they found may not be allowed in court.
So we look at the search first. Then we look at the lab reports, how the evidence was handled, and whether you even knew the drugs were there.
General information, not legal advice for your situation.
We can't promise how your case will end. We can promise to check every one of these, explain what we find, and let you make the call.
Police sometimes charge everyone near the drugs. The state still has to prove you knew they were there and had control over them. That is often the center of the defense.
Every case is different, and we cannot promise a result. Many first-time possession cases have options short of jail, including programs that may end in a dismissal. We will go over the real range with you.
The situation. A traffic stop turned into a full search of the car, trunk and bags.
Our work. We argued the search went past what the driver agreed to. The judge agreed.
Evidence suppressed, charge dropped
