Experience That Makes a Difference
Drug cases may be based on questionable evidence, including evidence obtained in violation of a defendant's constitutional rights, testimony of witnesses with questionable motives and audio or video evidence that may be difficult or impossible to decipher. At MacDowell & Associates, we hold the prosecution to its burden of proof.
We will examine the facts of your case and carefully construct a strong defense on your behalf, bolstering your chances of success in plea negotiations or at trial, if necessary. We will make appropriate pretrial motions to seek the suppression of evidence obtained as a result of an illegal search or seizure, or obtained in violation of any of your constitutional rights.
