Drug charges are built on searches. Searches can fail.
From simple possession to trafficking weight, nearly every drug case begins with a stop, a search, or a warrant — and that’s where we begin taking it apart.
Where these cases break open.
The search
Traffic stop, K-9 sniff, warrant affidavit, consent — every link in the chain gets a constitutional audit. Evidence that was seized wrong gets suppressed, and cases without evidence get dismissed.
The lab and the weight
Charges are graded by substance and amount. We force the State to prove both — chain of custody, lab accreditation, analyst on the stand — because charge level drives everything.
The role they cast you in
Possession is not trafficking, and proximity is not possession. Prosecutors charge the ceiling; our pre-trial litigation makes them prove it or drop it.

Can a drug case go federal?
