Drug Possession

There are myriad drug offenses under both New York and Federal law. The primary offenses include drug possession, drug sales and/or trafficking, and drug manufacture.  These offenses cover all types of controlled substances including marijuana, LSD, cocaine, "crack", methamphetamine, ecstasy, “mushrooms,” etc.

Were you stopped and frisked without reasonable suspicion? Make absolutely sure  to consult an attorney first. A trial may be completely unnecessary if you were detained in violation of the fourth amendment. If proper conditions are met, a judge may suppress the evidence at the heart of your case.

The punishments for these crimes vary , but can include significant prison sentences and property forfeiture actions by the State. Most drug cases involve search and seizure issues as well as confidential informants. Often times, law enforcement performs search and seizure in violation of the New York and Federal constitution and this can result in the reduction of charges and/or dismissal of your case. The Law Offices of Jesse Hoberman-Kelly has extensive experience with these issues and knows how to present the most effective defense for your case.
