Choosing the Right Drug Trafficking Lawyer

If you searching for a criminal lawyer to defend you against a charge of drug possession or distribution, you very likely understand the seriousness of your predicament. Resist the temptation to retain a lawyer who blithely promises you he can persuade a court to dismiss the charges or suppress the evidence against you. Even under the most promising conditions, convincing a judge to suppress evidence is no small task.

Consider carefully which Boston Drug Trafficking Lawyer is most capable of successfully petitioning the court to dismiss drug charges outright, challenging the constitutionality of a law enforcement search, or winning your trial. Representing an individual accused of a drug offense requires a particular skill set; such a lawyer should possess exceptional investigatory, research, writing and cross-examination skills. In no other type of case is drafting a comprehensive, articulate, organized, and thoroughly researched and persuasive motion so critical. In most serious drug cases, a Motion to Suppress represents a defendant’s best, and likely only, opportunity to defeat the prosecution. Kevin J. Mahoney has successfully defended hundreds of clients accused of drug offenses, including possession, possession with intent to distribute, and drug trafficking in Massachusetts and Federal courts.
