Ever since America declared ‘war on drugs’ in 1971, our prisons and jails have filled up with drug cases quickly, often for people who have had very few drugs in their possession. At Mcclintock Law, we don’t want to see you serve a disproportionate amount of time for your offense. Especially as a resident of Illinois, the laws can be confusing as to what is legal and illegal. Scott wants you to understand what is involved in drug cases and how he can help you should you find yourself in a tight spot.
TYPES OF DRUG CASES WE HANDLE
In Warren County and surrounding Illinois counties, most drug arrests are made by local law enforcement. If however, a federal officer makes the arrest the case will almost certainly become a federal offense. Federal offenses can include selling, manufacturing, distributing, or trafficking illegal drugs. In addition, if a drug offense occurs on federal property, or is busted by the DEA, defendants can also be charged at a Federal level.
That is why McClintock Law is able to represent you in any situation. You will want someone with drug defense experience to get you through the wide scope of punishments that vary between the courts.
WE CAN WIN YOUR CASE
While each drug case is different, often involving unique circumstances, our defense plan will be strong. At McClintock Law we work for dismissals in preliminary hearings, uncover illegal search and seizure procedures, and dispute possession. Just because the police bring you in does not mean you are guilty of the crimes for which you are charged. We will work to uncover what type of drugs were allegedly in your possession and if you were aware of the drugs or was there any proof of intent to sell drugs. These are important factors in your arrest and subsequent defense.
BUT DOESN’T ILLINOIS LAW ALWAYS CHANGE?
It seems that Illinois is always changing its mind when it comes to the law and drugs and which laws apply to which drugs. Our clients don’t have to worry about understanding every nuance of the law.
