Skilled Defense and Investigation to Protect Your Rights
Experienced defense attorney David Breston will work diligently to defend you. No matter what evidence the government has, it may be possible to have your case dismissed or your charges reduced. We may be able to convince the judge to recommend drug treatment or counseling rather than jail time.
In order to discover evidence that may result in the charges being dropped or your punishment minimized in your drug crime case, we ask:
- Was the search and seizure lawful?
- Was your detention illegal?
- Were you properly read your Miranda rights?
- Can the government prove drug possession beyond a reasonable doubt?
- In cases of prescription medication, did you have the authority to possess the drugs?
Often, the answers to these questions can result in your case being thrown out of court and charges dismissed. For experienced defense, contact the Law Office of David A. Breston today.
