If you have been charged with simple possession, we know how important it is for you to keep your record clean. I can help you explore options available for first-time drug offenders that may help you keep a clean record:

Drug Possession, Sale and Distribution Defense for Repeat Offenders
If you have been convicted of drug possession, sale or distribution before, we will fight hard to seek the best possible outcome in your current case. I handle both state and federal drug cases, including federal drug conspiracies and trafficking.
Penalties increase for second or subsequent drug convictions and federal drug cases tend to be more complicated. For example, many federal drug cases involve evidence from wiretaps. It is important to seek legal representation from an experienced attorney — one who understands the penalties you may be facing as well as solid defense options in either situation.
