Drug Crimes
Drug crimes are among the easiest to get in trouble for, because it does not matter whether the drugs are yours, it matters whether you were there. The facts and circumstances in every case differ, but the attorneys at Jon Stephenson Law have experience dealing with smaller cases involving drug charges arising from a vehicle search during a DUI stop to larger cases involving kilos upon kilos of narcotics.
Cases involving narcotics and prescription drugs hold a certain appeal for law enforcement. For relatively little work, police officers and other government agents can get a big publicity day and a pat on the back. The possibility of this payout can lead officers in the field to make mistakes when they conduct arrests and searches, because they are simply too excited. At Jon Stephenson Law, we know exactly what to do to get these cases dismissed before they are even indicted.
During his prosecutor days, Jon Stephenson worked as the chief prosecutor of the Major Narcotics division in the Harris County District Attorney’s Office and gained valuable experience and insight into the inner workings of these prosecutions. He knows the ins and outs, and is ready to put all of his knowledge to work to protect and fight for you. Mr. Stephenson is an expert in search and seizure law, and he is ready to put that expertise to work and find a way to dismiss your case.
Of course, the officers and agents do not make a mistake in every single case. Sometimes there is nothing we can do under the law to get the charges gone. In these cases, the team at Jon Stephenson Law is ready to defend your case in court. Even at the stage of trial, our attorneys have gotten charges reduced and mitigated major sentences into manageable ones. Jon Stephenson Law is committed to getting you the best outcome possible, even when the circumstances are less than favorable. You can rest assured that the attorneys at Jon Stephenson Law will never stop fighting for you.
