Drug trafficking can refer to any involvement in the sale or distribution of controlled substances. 

It can also refer to specific quantities of drugs that trigger the harshest sentences under the law. 

The bottom line is that if you have been arrested, indicted or investigated in connection with drug trafficking, you need smart and aggressive representation to avoid a conviction or minimize the sentence.

I am an experienced drug charge lawyer and have obtained notable results for clients accused of drug trafficking.

I have obtained dismissals and acquittals, suppressed prejudicial evidence, negotiated favorable plea bargains and convinced judges to depart downward from the sentencing guidelines.

I have the experience and resources to defend clients charged with:

• Sale or intent to distribute

• Drug trafficking or drug importation

• Drug manufacture or cultivation

• Money laundering

• Conspiracy and racketeering

• Drug-related gun crimes

I handle cases alleging cocaine trafficking and similar charges for methamphetamine, heroin, marijuana, prescription narcotics and other controlled substances. These cases are not based on coincidence or law enforcement hunches. In most cases, trafficking charges are the culmination of long investigations which may have involved wiretaps, surveillance, informants and/or undercover agent and are rarely open-and-shut. 

I analyze all grounds to challenge the prosecution, including Fourth Amendment violations, Miranda rights, motivation and reliability of government witnesses exhausting every avenue to exclude ill-gotten evidence or prejudicial testimony and we will initiate plea negotiations when it is in the client's interests to take a deal. 

If you are facing a term of 10 years, 20 years or life in prison, I’m prepared to make the government prove its case at trial.

The facts of your case will influence the options and the strategy, but we are confident that our sophisticated approach will improve your outcome. 

I represent clients facing high-stakes drug charges in state and federal courts of Maryland, including Anne Arundel County, Prince George's County, Montgomery County, Howard County, Queen Anne's County and adjoining jurisdictions.
