Smart Defense Strategies for Serious Drug Crime Cases
At the Houston law firm of Laird Valdez, our criminal defense attorneys advise and represent people facing drug charges of all kinds—possession, distribution, conspiracy or prescription fraud. To learn how our approach to client service in drug crime cases can benefit you, contact our office, and find out about your options.
Our approach to your defense reflects a basic fact of criminal law: the government's responsibility to prove the charges against you beyond a reasonable doubt. Our experience allows us to make accurate evaluations about the strength of the prosecution's case. When it's weak from the start, we can work toward dismissal of the charges or victory at trial. If the evidence against you is strong, then we help you reach the most favorable plea deal possible under the circumstances.
Work With Attorneys Who Can Make an Accurate Evaluation of Your Risks
We give our clients a good sense of what their risks are and what a reasonable outcome should look like. Then it's up to you to decide to accept a plea offer or take your defense to trial. If you have no practical option but to put the government to its proof, our skill as trial lawyers is especially strong with the identification of weaknesses in the prosecution's case, and in exposing them through the cross-examination of government witnesses.
Laird Valdez works with people facing such drug crime charges as the following:
- Misdemeanor or felony drug possession charges
- Drug trafficking or distribution charges
- Cases involving marijuana, cocaine or other controlled substances
- Unauthorized possession or sale of painkillers or other prescription medications
- State or federal drug conspiracy charges
- Money laundering charges
- Juvenile drug cases
- Civil forfeiture cases related to drug investigations or seizures
If we get the chance to represent you during the grand jury phase of a state or federal investigation, we can work toward protecting you from ever having to face the most serious potential charges. The sooner you engage skilled defense counsel, the better your chances will be for resolving the case on positive terms.
