A strong defense in a drug crime case involving allegations of possession of cocaine or any criminal defense case should include an evaluation of actions of law enforcement leading up to the arrest. Specifically, it is important to determine whether police may have engaged in illegal search and seizure tactics, thus violating the Constitutional rights of the accused. Evidence that was gathered in an illegal manner can often be suppressed. Many cases are dismissed at an early stage when evidence is found to be inadmissible.
Sometimes the real issue in drug crime allegations, especially in allegations of possession of cocaine, is not the legality of police conduct in obtaining evidence, but rather incorrect assumptions by law enforcement as to whether the accused actually possessed the substance in question.
Whatever the circumstance might be, at Anderson & Thomas, PLLC, we put our unique backgrounds to use in the defense of our clients who have been charged with cocaine possession, manufacture, or distribution. We have both worked as felony chief prosecutors in the Harris County District Attorney's Office and have both served as Criminal District Court judges. We also served previously as judges in the Harris County STAR Drug Court Program—Harris County's innovative and highly effective drug rehabilitation court. Our experience at all levels of the criminal justice system gives us unique insight into the process of criminal trials and prosecution tactics. We believe that our firm is unique in this way. We are also unique in that we work as a team on all cases. Clients benefit from the knowledge and legal analysis of two experienced lawyers working on their case.
