The Law Offices of Scott David Stewart
Phoenix Drug Trafficking Defense Lawyers
Conviction for the sale and distribution of drugs almost always results in prison time, fines, even seizure of assets under the RICO statute. Understanding your rights throughout the process is important for any executed search warrants, or highways stops that result in the discovery of drugs. At the Law Offices of Scott David Stewart our criminal defense attorneys evaluate the evidence against our clients while thoroughly reviewing the execution and terms of any searches and seizures involving your personal property. Our investigators interview eye-witnesses and pursue evidence prosecutors don’t have the time or interest in developing that can often lead to exculpatory information in our clients’ favor.
Before entering a plea or making a deal with the prosecutor’s office, contact a Phoenix drug trafficking defense lawyer at the Law Offices of Scott David Stewart to learn more about your options. We provide free, confidential consultations and represent clients in Tempe, Gilbert, Glendale, Scottsdale, Chandler, Mesa, Goodyear, Peoria, Paradise Valley, Litchfield Park, Guadalupe, Avondale, El Mirage, Youngtown, Sun City, Surprise, Buckeye, Anthem, Tolleson, and Maricopa County.
Challenging the Case Against You
How the authorities conduct themselves during an investigation or arrest can determine whether or not evidence collected can be admitted during trial. Working with police reports, copies of search warrants, and witnesses, we challenge the prosecution in regard to the following issues:
Your Home
- If a search warrant is involved, was it executed properly?
- Were areas searched that were not specified in the search warrant?
- Was anything seized unrelated to drugs or not mentioned in the warrant?
Your Car
- Did the police have reasonable suspicion to pull your car over?
- Do you have reason to believe the police may have “profiled” your vehicle or you?
Meeting Drug Distribution and Trafficking Charges Head-On
Even if drugs are found in your home or car, the prosecution must prove that, 1.) they are yours and 2), you intended to sell them. Assuming your Constitutional rights were not violated during the search that resulted in their being discovered, extenuating circumstances or additional evidence may shed a different light on the situation.
As your defense attorneys, we meticulously review police procedures while offering an alternative account of what happened that the prosecution failed to mention. As a former county prosecutor, Mr. Stewart understands the limitations on time and investigative resources prosecutors face and how corners are sometimes cut. We assemble ALL the facts and aggressively defend your rights.
