Decades of Experience Challenging the Prosecution in Drug Possession Cases
I am William Wallshein, a West Palm Beach drug possession lawyer with more than 38 years of experience. As a former state prosecutor with five years of experience, I know firsthand what steps law enforcement can take when investigating individuals suspected of drug possession. If law enforcement violated your constitutional rights or charged you with a crime you did not commit, I will not back down. I will review every angle possible to protect your constitutional rights at all costs.
Whether you are facing federal or state drug possession charges, do not settle for anything less than an experienced defense strategy. I will apply my years of experience as a defense lawyer and former prosecutor to protect your rights. Contact my drug possession defense firm to learn how I can help you fight a conviction during a free consultation.
Aggressively Defending Against Drug Possession Charges
If you are facing drug possession charges, obtain experienced legal counsel. Drug possession charges often stem from a traffic stop when illegal substances are uncovered, such as:
- Marijuana
- Cocaine
- Meth
- Heroin
- Possession of drug paraphernalia
- Illegal possession of prescription drugs
The evidence against you may seem incriminating but that does not necessarily mean you are guilty. I will review the prosecution’s evidence, while seeking to uncover any evidence that may be used in your favor. For example, you may have been driving a family member’s vehicle without knowing you were transporting illegal substances. An alibi, text messages or email records may help validate you were unaware of the illegal activity. I will also fight for a dismissal if the arresting officer failed to have a valid reason to pull you over or acted outside the terms of a search warrant. Every drug possession case is fact-specific. I will review every detail possible to develop a defense focused on protecting your rights.
Questioning the Validity of the Drug Charges You Are Facing
Drug charges can be very complicated. Depending on the nature of the crime allegedly committed, the penalties can vary greatly at the state or federal level. I have extensive experience defending clients facing drug possession charges in state and federal court. I know what must be proven to secure a conviction in state or federal court. If the crime you allegedly committed does not fit the level of charges you are facing, I will fight for a reduction in penalties. I know how the criminal justice system works and will protect you from facing charges you did not commit.
