Penalties for Drug Crimes
Drug crimes, such as possession, are heavily prosecuted and if convicted, carry severe consequences including a permanent criminal record, prison time, heavy fines, and more. At our defense firm in Chicago, we are dedicated to defending the rights of our clients and we can help you!
How Our Firm Can Defend You
Being convicted of a drug crime can have a serious impact on your life. That is why, if charged, you should immediately seek legal guidance from an experienced and dedicated defense firm. At the Law Office of Steven Fine, our Chicago drug crime attorney uses proven and personalized defensive strategies to protect you, your rights, and your reputation.
For example, some defense strategies we use to protect our clients include:
- Disputing possession – Just because you are charged with possession , doesn’t mean that you were aware that the drugs were even there. Our firm can influence your case by creating doubt as to whether or not you were aware that you were carrying drugs or even that the drugs could have been planted on you.
- No probable cause – Police officers always need a reason to stop or question a defendant. Often, there is no lawful reason for the officer to have stopped or pulled over the defendant prior to the arrest, making their motives questionable.
- Illegal search and seizure – Police need specific warrants to search your car or home without your permission. That means that they may not be able to use certain evidence they find against you if obtained through illegal means. Our attorney will ensure your rights are protected.
- Miranda Rights – Most people may know what these are, but not how they are implemented. If an officer does not tell you your Miranda Rights, anything you tell them could be considered obtained without your full knowledge of your rights. Without you acknowledging that you understand your Miranda Rights, they can’t use what you say as evidence.
