Phoenix Drug Crimes Defense Attorney

We assist clients who are facing the following types of drug charges:

  • Possession or use
  • Sale or intent to distribute/drug trafficking
  • Transportation or illegal importation
  • Manufacture of illegal drugs, such as crystal methamphetamine
  • Growth of illegal drugs, such as marijuana
  • Possession of drug paraphernalia
  • Prescription drug crimes
  • DUI drugs

One of the most important factors in any drug crime is the amount of illegal narcotics found in your possession. This is because at certain amount thresholds, prison time will become mandatory. Our firm will investigate the amount with which you are being charged and make certain that the testing used to determine this amount was done properly and that the equipment being used to measure was properly used and maintained. We will also conduct thorough investigations of search warrants or warrantless searches and will make sure that any drugs found during a search were discovered within the scope of the law.

I am there for you.

If you have been arrested for a drug crime, please contact my office immediately at 602.253.6889 to arrange your free initial consultation. I accept all major credit cards and have a 24-hour answering service, so that I may be reached at all times.
