Our attorneys have over twenty years’ practice handling drug cases ranging from the relatively simple (possession of marijuana/ cocaine/ heroin/ oxycodone/ percocet) to extremely complex (multi-defendant drug manufacturing and/or distribution cases). Whether resolving the simple possession matters via summary offenses (typically involving a fine and no supervision), or by way of Diversionary/ Treatment Courts, our attorneys are generally successful in resolving those cases in a manner so as to avoid our client sustaining the misdemeanor conviction and collateral consequence of a driver’s license suspension. It is important that the accused has an attorney well-aware of the direct and collateral consequences to these cases.
The complex cases often involve poring through volumes of “Discovery,” including police officers’ reports, surveillance, and the use of confidential informants. These cases are sometimes fertile ground for “Suppression Hearings,” and litigating these suppression issues are one of my strengths as a criminal defense attorney. Cross-examination of police witnesses, often qualified as experts by the Courts, and cross-examination of cooperating witnesses and informants is also typically involved. Cross-examination is a developed skill for any attorney, and one which our attorneys are well-equipped to handle for our clients.
