Protecting Your Rights

Constitutional issues are often involved in cases involving drug charges. We will investigate to determine whether your right to be free of an illegal search and seizure of property was violated by law enforcement. If the evidence against you was obtained illegally, we will file a motion to suppress the evidence and get the charges against you dismissed.
