Drug Charges & Your Criminal Defense

If you are charged with any drug offense, an experienced drug lawyer (criminal attorney) can help. Your attorney will need to plan and execute viable defense strategies based on your unique case, including challenging the legitimacy of the search and seizure.

Our Nashville attorneys have thousands of hours of experience defending drug charges in both state and federal court. Our defense strategies are methodical. We know all the variables to a great defense and, most importantly, how to use those variables to tell your story.

The End Goal & Your Reputation… In The End, It Matters

In addition to crafting a great defense strategy, it will be imperative to control and manage your reputation. We do this through the legal suppression of imagery, false or misleading comments, and public criticism through various media outlets.
Our end goal is to return you to the life you had before this drug charge. While it’s not always possible, we usually get pretty close.

Drug Lawyers & Your Criminal Defense

Successful drug lawyers often defend drug charges using pretrial motions and negotiations. A simple example is the suppression of evidence for unlawful search and seizure.

Whether it was a charge of simple possession, intent to distribute, or conspiracy charges, many factors can come into play that will affect the fate of the case.
