Put an Experienced Defense Attorney on Your Side

From the moment you retain our services, our experienced criminal defense attorneys will protect your rights. If you have been charged with drug possession, we first look for a dismissal. Our firm can identify if law enforcement violated any search and seizure laws. If we determine the search was illegal, then we can bring a motion to suppress the evidence. This can be sufficient to have the charges dismissed.

If there is a conviction, our firm vigorously explores sentencing alternatives. The state of California's policy, under Proposition 36, is to get you into a drug treatment program. If a person is charged with drug possession or using drugs, the person completes probation and drug treatment in lieu of jail time. When the person successfully completes the treatment program, the case is dismissed. Additionally, the individual's criminal record is expunged.

Our firm handles criminal drug charges involving the following:

• Marijuana
• Heroin
• Cocaine
• Ecstasy
• Meth (methamphetamines)
