If you or someone you love was arrested for a drug crime, you could be facing serious state or federal charges.

We will also conduct depositions, interview witnesses, and build your defense case. 

Our goal is to build a defense that reaches the best possible resolution to your case. We have been representing those facing criminal charges for many years. Review our testimonials to see what our clients have to say about us.

A Drug Crimes Lawyer Can Help You Build Your Defense Strategy

If you or someone you love in Chester County was arrested for a drug crime, we will investigate any violations of your rights. This may include continued questioning by police after you requested a lawyer or searching your person or your property without a valid warrant.  

To bolster and support your case, our team will:

• Ensure your pre- and post-arrest rights were not violated
• Establish a lack of probable cause, where applicable
• Fight for your pre-trial release while we build your defense
• Investigate your charges and the state’s evidence 
• Locate and interview supporting witnesses in your case

At McKenzie Law Firm, P.C., we also may work with the attorney for the state to negotiate a plea bargain. A plea agreement can result in lesser charges, lower fines, and lighter sentences.

Facing drug-related criminal charges on your own can be daunting. With our support and guidance, you can build a defense. Previous clients we defended say the following:

• I hired David and he did a great job. He got a few of my drug charges dropped by the officer before my preliminary trial. He then guided me through the ARD application process, and I was eventually accepted…He was very knowledgeable of the entire process from start to finish. – Anonymous
• I was referred to David by a friend that called him “the best in the business”. He represented me in a criminal drug offense case and managed to arrange the best-case scenario plea bargain…Would recommend to anyone! – Josh

We are committed to helping our clients get a fresh start.

Drug Crime Conviction Can Lead to Harsh Penalties

The penalties you face for drug crimes can derail your personal, professional, and social life. The severity of your charges will depend on whether you are charged with a misdemeanor or felony. 

According to Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes Title 18 § 7508, factors that will affect penalties include:

• The type and volume of drugs involved 
• Your previous arrests and criminal history 
• The state’s preset sentencing guidelines 

Criminal Conviction Can Affect Many Areas of Your Life

For many people, the biggest fear of criminal conviction is being incarcerated or imprisoned. A conviction — even an arrest without conviction — can have other unwelcome consequences that negatively impact your life.

A drug-related crime can:

• Damage your name and reputation in your community
• Leave a permanent stain on subsequent background checks
• Bar you from certain types of professional employment
• Bar you from specific forms of government assistance 
• Limit the locations where you can legally reside
• Interrupt your preferred career path and goals

We never stop fighting to defend the criminal defendants we represent because we understand that an opportunity for a new start will benefit you and the people you love.
