Drug Crimes

From simple cases of drug possession to more serious drug trafficking charges, there is a broad range of drug charges in Connecticut. If you seek an aggressive criminal defense after drug charges have been brought against you, we can help. For more than a decade, we have represented clients in a wide range of drug cases:

• Drug Possession

• Weapons Charges
• Intent to Deliver

We can defend your rights, no matter what drug your charges involve. We have represented the rights of clients associated with all types of drugs. When your freedom is at risk, after charges stemming from the possession of any drug, we can help:

Alternative Sentencing Techniques

Even a simple case of drug possession can have a serious, long term impact on your life. In some cases, we can help keep an arrest off of your record; otherwise it could affect your future voting privileges student loans, and employment. Instead of simply pleading out, we will work to reach a plan that keeps your best interests and your future in mind.

There are a variety of ways in which we help clients avoid jail time. From drug treatment and drug counseling to alternative incarceration programs and parole, by hiring an experienced drug trafficking and possession lawyer, you may be able to avoid going to jail. Even if you are found guilty, we will continue to fight for your rights, trying to reduce your sentence by seeking the opinion of a separate panel and by handling criminal appellate work.

RICO

The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, or RICO, is meant to curb the growth of organized crime. However, certain evidence could lead to you being prosecuted under the guidelines of RICO. When you have been arrested for a drug crime, prosecutors may try to convict you for the largest crime possible. The presence of paraphernalia, such as scales and zip lock bags, could be enough to bring drug factory charges against you. At that point the state may seize any and all assets that may have been a profit of the enterprise, including your car and house. We can help protect your rights against charges filed under RICO.
