Drug Crimes

WE PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS AGGRESSIVELY!

In California, drug crimes are some of the most widely prosecuted crimes on both the state and federal level.  Drug crimes are treated extremely harshly in our country right now, and if this is not your first crime, then you could be looking at serious jail time, and substantial monetary costs. Fresno Criminal Defense Attorney Scott Levy aggressively defends individuals charged with possession, transportation, manufacturing, sales and being under the influence of drugs.

Many drug charges can be triggered by a traffic stop or a search.  Thankfully, the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution protects you from unreasonable searches and seizures.  Unfortunately, not all law enforcement officers follow the rules when it comes to arresting of searching individuals.  As a result, most drug charges can initially be challenged by attacking the police officer’s reason for stopping or searching you.  As a drug crimes attorney in Fresno, Scott Levy has the experience and skill to determine if law enforcement violated your Fourth Amendment rights prior to arresting you for drug crimes.

Fresno Criminal Defense Attorney Scott Levy's record of success is based on his willingness to defend drug crimes cases aggressively. The process doesn't begin by negotiating; instead, he makes every effort to get the charges completely dismissed. If this does not happen right away, it is important to look at the discovery stage of the case.  Even if the charges cannot be dismissed, this strengthens our hand in negotiating with the prosecutor. In many cases, this can work to get results. No matter what you've been charged with, no matter what challenge you face, attorney Scott Levy is here to see that your rights are protected.
