Creative Strategies to Minimize Charges and Sentence
Any experienced drug crimes lawyer knows how important the personal story of a defendant can be. There are so many stereotypes surrounding the use of drugs that they can be difficult to overcome in court—often resulting in stiffer penalties than are fair or reasonable. As your attorney, I will help the court see who you really are and how resolving your addition will make you a productive member of society. I will be your advocate for rehabilitation instead of jail, which the District Attorney will be seeking.
I am experienced with heroin defense charges involving:
- Trafficking
- Possession
- Distribution
- Use
- Importation
More Than 20 Years Experience in Heroin Drug Defense
With more than 20 years of experience, I have witnessed the significant losses faced by my clients and their families who are ravaged by a drug addiction. I have seen addicts lose custody of their children, lose their jobs, and suffer life-altering personal losses as a result of drug use. In addition to my tactical strategies in reducing charges and penalties associated with drug related crimes, I will also help my clients seek the help they need to get their lives back on track. I pursue alternative remedies including deferred sentencing, time served in a treatment facility, and other alternatives to jail time.
Unlike some counties, Larimer County has a Drug Court. The Drug Court uses an alternative approach where the system actively works with the defendant to address addiction issues. The goal of drug court is to facilitate recovery, resulting in a healthy, contributing member returned to the community.
Following a heroin arrest, sorting out legal issues is only the first step. This is why I emphasize education. I will assist in your search to find a treatment program so you can get help from experts who understand where you are and what you need to get better:
- Harmony Foundation, in Estes Park
- Mountain Crest, in Fort Collins
- Island Grove Regional Treatment Center
You are not alone.
I know how hard it is to break the cycle, but I am a lawyer prepared to assist my clients through the system and onto the road of recovery.
