State Drug Crimes

A Skilled Drug Trafficking Defense Attorney

After a drug bust, the criminal defense lawyer you choose could make a big difference in the outcome of your case. The state of Massachusetts has all the power and resources it needs to prosecute you. The attorney you hire needs to have the experience, knowledge and skill to fight back.

For more than 20 years, I have been fighting for the rights and freedom of people charged with serious drug crimes in both state and federal courts. I have an impressive track record of success at getting evidence suppressed and having cases dismissed. Contact my drug defense law firm for an initial consultation.

I was looking at a sentence of a little more than 20 years. The day finally came for my sentencing. . . He [Mr. Halpern] really took charge of the courtroom. I was very impressed and the judge must have been, too, because after all was said and done I was sentenced to only 8 years. I put my trust in Mr. Halpern and I wasn't disappointed. He did an excellent job and I am just grateful Mr. Halpern was my attorney.

Sincerely,
D. Washington

Successfully Handling Drug Dealing and Drug Possession Charges

If you are facing drug charges, you need an aggressive drug distribution defense lawyer. I have won multiple not-guilty verdicts and had cases dismissed for many drug crimes, including:

  • Drug dealing
  • Prescription drug fraud
  • Narcotics trafficking
  • Gang-related activity
  • Racketeering/RICO Act Violations
  • Conspiracy
  • Drug possession

Thorough, Aggressive Defense in Serious Drug Cases

I know how to build an effective defense in any drug case. I have handled cases involving all types of drugs, including large quantities of marijuana, crack, cocaine, Ecstasy and other "club drugs," heroin and meth. You can also rely on me for defense involving prescription opiates and painkillers such as OxyContin, Percocet and Vicodin.

While I do handle the common charges of drug possession and possession with intent to distribute, I have the experience to defend people accused of major drug felonies. No matter what your criminal charges are, I will vigorously defend your rights.

Challenging the Evidence: Search and Seizure Issues

A drug case can be a bit like a game of chess. My job is to force the prosecutor to prove every element of its case. This means that I challenge every piece of evidence collected against you. If the police violated your constitutional rights when collecting the evidence, I will fight to have it suppressed, which could mean a reduction or dismissal of your charges.

And When Necessary, Getting you the Best Deal

There are cases that can't be won. A drug deal with an undercover may be caught on tape. In cases where it is not realistic to go to trial, you need a lawyer with the expertise to get you the best deal possible. You need a lawyer who can present your story to a judge in a way that limits your sentence. A lawyer who will work hard at persuading the judge to look at treatment alternatives to incarceration. You need a lawyer thoroughly familiar with complex sentencing guidelines and procedures. My expertise has saved my clients from countless years behind bars.
