The eventual outcome of your case may depend on swift action by an experienced drug crimes lawyer.
Experienced Criminal Defense
Carey Law Offices, LLC has over 25 years of legal experience
successfully challenging all types of drug cases, including:
-
Cultivation, Manufacture, and Sale
-
Importation, Transportation, or
Trafficking
-
Possession or Possession for Sale

Fighting Drug Charges
The punishment for drug convictions vary greatly, depending on the type of drug involved, the quantity discovered, and the defendant's criminal record.
Many times, we can file a motion to suppress evidence based on a violation of Fourth Amendment rights, such as a lack of a valid warrant or probable cause. Evidence gathered by such illegal methods is often critical to the prosecution's case, and successfully suppressing it can lead to all charges being dropped.
Federal sentencing guidelines are among the harshest in the country, with high mandatory minimum sentences for the possession of small amounts of illegal drugs. Federal parole guidelines have been severely restricted. Even if you are arrested by state or local police, agreements between state and federal prosecutors could result in your transfer to a federal court (which is not a decision a defense lawyer can appeal).
A strong and swift defense by a seasoned drug crime defense lawyer is your best hope to have charges dismissed or reduced, or to get the minimal punishment if you are convicted.

Theft is a general legal term that is at least a factor in any
incident in which someone takes property with the intent to
permanently deprive the owner of possession. The specific charge
will partly depend on the method used. For example:
Burglary = illegal entry for purpose of another crime, usually
theft
Shoplifting = taking goods from sales establishment without
intent to pay
Robbery = taking directly from a person by use of force, threat,
or intimidation
There are a number of other crimes involving theft, such as extortion, embezzlement, and identity theft. Fraud or other criminal acts are also involved in many kinds of theft, so criminal charges for theft can become very complex. Every state has its own statutes of specific charges, and Maryland is no exception.
Specific theft crimes can vary in severity from misdemeanor to felony, depending on the value of the stolen property and whether or not violence was involved. The criminal record of the accused will also have an impact on the possible sentences a court may impose. When facing a theft charge, you will very likely face a list of legal terms that may be difficult to understand. That is why it is important to retain a skilled theft defense attorney as soon as possible. Once you understand the specifics of the charges, you and your lawyer will be able to prepare a defense that addresses every important aspect of the case against you.
