If you or a loved one has been arrested and are facing serious criminal charges, including marijuana possession, distribution, or trafficking, it is crucial to understand your rights and options. In some cases, bail may be set for the accused, allowing them to secure temporary release from custody while awaiting trial. In such situations, obtaining accurate inmate information is essential to determine the conditions of the arrest, available bail options, and how to proceed with the legal process. A criminal defense lawyer can guide you through the complexities of the case and work to secure the best possible outcome.

Our first goal in drug crime defense is to beat the charges through dismissal. If we can convince the prosecution that it can’t prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt, it will probably choose not to pursue the charges. In many situations, we can explore the possibility of a suppression motion, which aims to show that the evidence against you in the form of drugs or cash was unlawfully discovered and seized.

When the evidence against you is likely to stand up to a challenge, we’ll look for ways to protect you from the worst consequences of a conviction. There are usually good options for negotiating a plea on favorable terms, such as reducing a felony charge to a misdemeanor, or amending a “nonsupervisionable” charge to one that allows for supervision, which won’t appear on your record. Our goal is to keep you eligible for expungement or sealed records.

Our criminal defense attorneys advise clients about their defense options for the full range of Illinois drug charges:

• Unlawful Possession of Marijuana, Cocaine, Prescription Drugs or Other Controlled Substances
• Possession with Intent to Distribute
• Delivery of a Controlled Substance
• Seizure of Drugs, Cash or Paraphernalia Associated with Drug Sales
• Drug Charges against Juveniles, College Students or Licensed Professionals

While representing people charged with drug offenses, we take other important interests in your life into account to make sure that an otherwise attractive plea agreement won’t have unintended consequences for school, student loans or a professional license.
