Georgia Drug Crime Defense Attorney
It can happen a thousand different ways. Police stop you on a minor traffic offense, suspect you may be in possession of illegal narcotics, search your vehicle and find some marijuana or paraphernalia. Law enforcement bust a campus party, find relatively small amounts of cocaine and start making arrests.
At the law office of Jarrett Maillet our Savannah possession lawyer works exclusively in the area of misdemeanor and felony drug offenses. We put our proven experience and a deep knowledge of the law to work for individuals charged with possession of illegal substances and unlawful prescription drugs, with a focus on helping them protect their freedom, their rights and their future.
Fighting a Life Changing Criminal Charge
The police and local prosecutors aggressively pursue any indication of illegal drug use or possession, and the consequences for those caught up in the narcotics dragnet can extend for years or even decades.
Our office has represented a wide range of clients from service men and women at Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield to juveniles and students from Savannah College of Art and Design and Savannah State. We understand how a drug crime can impact a client's future, and we work to minimize the damage a criminal charge has on our clients today as well as into the future.
We have worked with clients accused of possession of:
- Marijuana
- Cocaine
- Meth
- Ecstasy
- Crack
- Illegal prescription drugs
With potential jail sentences ranging from 2 to 15 years for certain possession charges and a statutory minimum of 10 to 40 years if you are convicted of trafficking, you need a strong and dependable attorney on your side. We can explore all options for your defense, whether we negotiate with prosecutors or we aggressively fight in court.
