Helping you assert a defense against drug possession charges

On Behalf of | Mar 15, 2019 | Drug Crimes, Firm News |

The state of Florida has been cracking down on drug crimes, and this is evident in the penalties one could face if convicted. Whether it is minor possession, possession with the intent to distribute or drug trafficking, drug charges have the ability to follow a person around. Whether it is their personal or professional reputation, having a drug charge on one’s record could impact a person for the rest of their life.

Whether you’ve defended yourself against criminal allegations before or not, it is important to have a good understanding of the criminal defense process. Drug charges can be very serious, and the attorneys at Kaylor Law Group know this. Thus, they are dedicated at helping individuals in the Lakeland area devise a strong defense strategy that is right for them.

Being found in possession of drugs in Florida can have harsh consequences. The state takes a strong stance on drug possession and has strict mandatory sentencing guidelines. This means that the more drugs a person is found in possession of, the harsher the penalties he or she could face. In these matters, our law firm explores whether or not a lawful search and seizure took place. If law enforcement failed to follow these procedures, this could help suppress evidence. This could also help poke holes in the case and ultimately have the charges dropped.

To learn more, check out our law firm’s drug crime website. Whether this is your first criminal allegation or not, it is important to understand what options you might have. Defendants are afforded the right to assert a defense against the charges, and by understanding what criminal defense strategies are available, a defendant could reduce or even dismiss the charges against them.
