Law enforcement resources and determination to ferret out, arrest and jail narcotics offenders can be daunting. It is essential that an individual under investigation or charged with drug possession, transportation, manufacturing or sales retain an effective lawyer, one with resources, a depth of knowledge and fierce determination to meet the challenge.
The lawyers at Rien, Adams & Cox, LLP have the experience, legal knowledge and tenacious determination to successfully defend individuals accused of narcotics violations, which can involve either street or prescription drugs.
It often happens, that in their zeal to enforce narcotics laws, police officers deliberately or mistakenly overstep their constitutional authority in the search of persons, homes, vehicles or personal belongings, or in seizing evidence or contraband. There are remedies for violations of the 4th Amendment to the United States Constitution as well as companion constitutional and statutory protections in California. Evidence of drug sales or trafficking or contraband seized in violation of these protections can be excluded by the court from use against an accused.
The attorneys at Rien, Adams & Cox, LLP, are skilled constitutional lawyers, committed to defending every person’s right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures as guaranteed by the Constitution. The firm fights aggressively to have charges reduced or dismissed, or to develop alternatives to conviction and punishment.
California’s Health and Safety Code requires that individuals convicted of specified drug offenses register as narcotics offenders with their local law enforcement agencies. This can be an onerous and embarrassing obligation, not to mention a circumstance that can raise the profile of a registrant to that of a suspect when police undertake future narcotics investigations.
The attorneys at Rien, Adams & Cox, LLP know what it takes to avoid registration as a drug offender, and will do everything legally possible to ensure that a client is never subjected to this obligation.
If you are under investigation or have been arrested for a drug offense, contact the skilled constitutional lawyers at Rien, Adams & Cox, LLP immediately.
