Methamphetamine and cocaine are powerful drugs. Even recreational use can spiral into addiction quickly. If you have been charged with possession of methamphetamine or possession of cocaine, it is important to recognize that you still have options. An experienced criminal defense lawyer can take steps to protect your rights and seek the best possible result to your charges.

If you have been charged with distributing methamphetamine or distributing cocaine, either in powder or crack form, you should know that these charges are extremely serious. If a weapon is found in your possession, the potential penalties are even more serious.
With what is at stake, you need a criminal defense attorney who will not back down and will take on the government’s case directly. Our team has the experience and skill you need when your future is on the line.
In drug distribution cases, your defense will usually revolve around whether the police violated your rights when searching for evidence. If the police did violate your rights, we will file a suppression motion, asking the court to suppress any evidence that was collected in violation of your rights. When successful, suppression motions can lead to a dismissal or reduction in the charges.
Generally speaking, prosecutors do not find people accused of distributing meth or cocaine to be deserving of sympathy. As a result, they are unlikely to offer reasonable plea agreements, particularly if they don’t think they will lose at trial. If you have a criminal defense lawyer with substantial experience, prosecutors are more likely to take threats to go to trial seriously.
Our lawyers have defended thousands of people in Denver and across Colorado against criminal charges, including possession of meth or possession of cocaine. In every drug case, we determine whether the police violated your constitutional rights when gathering evidence against you. If they did, we will file a motion to suppress this evidence.
Depending on the amount of drugs and whether or not you have prior convictions, we may be able to convince courts and prosecutors that rehabilitation is an option. If this is the case, we will help you take steps to put your life back together. We can help you present evidence of rehabilitation to the court, including clean urinalysis (UA) tests and character witnesses. In certain circumstances, these steps may allow you to get help for your addiction and avoid some of the harshest penalties associated with these charges.
Our lawyers will not sugarcoat your situation. On the other hand, we will never advise you to accept a prosecutor’s plea offer unless we think that it is in your best interest. We will always be working for you and will look for every possible way to improve your situation.
