Kansans Drug Charges Defense Attorney

Experienced Kansas City Drug Possession Lawyer

Serving Olathe and the Surrounding Communities

There is no such thing as a minor drug conviction. Even if you do not go to jail, any drug conviction will result in a permanent criminal record that may follow you around for the rest of your life. That record could prevent you from obtaining student loans or finding a good job.

Prior Drug Prosecution Experience Can Work to Your Advantage

Before I became a defense attorney, I was a prosecutor with the Johnson County District Attorney's Office. There I served on the drug unit, handling cases such as:

• Cocaine, crack, and marijuana possession
• Possession with the intent to distribute
• Drug trafficking
• Drug manufacturing
• Possession of paraphernalia

I later became a Special United States Attorney (Federal Prosecutor) focusing on methamphetamine laboratories and gun charges. As a result of my experience as a narcotics prosecutor handling complex drug cases, I know how municipal, state and federal governments handle drug crime cases. I also know how to prepare your drug charge defense.

Seeking All Potential Defenses to Your Drug Charges

The defense in drug crime cases often has to do with the issue of unlawful search and seizure. As your lawyer, I would analyze whether the police officer did anything illegal during the stop, search or seizure of drug evidence. If there is an issue with the police search and seizure, I will work to get the drug evidence suppressed.

If there is a defense to your drug charges, I will find it. I would never encourage a client to plead guilty to drug charges - or even take a diversion - when there is an opportunity for a dismissal or an acquittal.
