Drug Laws by Substance

Drug laws are extremely complex.  Penalties are generally based upon the type and quantify of the substance involved.  At the Law Offices of Adam D. Perlmutter, P.C., we have extensive experience in successfully defending a wide variety of drug crimes in both federal and state courts.  Clients need to understand that when it comes to drug crimes the deck is strongly stacked against them.

Prosecutors use conspiracy laws to expand and broaden the scope of a client’s exposure for the purpose of getting the client to simply give up and plead guilty.  We will never let that happen.  Rather, we will aggressively defend your rights, investigate your case, and make sure that every possible avenue is explored to help you beat or lessen the impact of the charges.  Our approach is thorough, diligent, and comprehensive.  We often hear from people that their lawyers did not do any work on their case or “sold them down the river.”  Not our clients . . . never.  We will fight for you at every turn and not rest until you have received the very best possible representation.
