Why Drug Charge Representation is Important in South Carolina
Prosecutors often pursue drug charges aggressively even for first-time offenders. The difference between possession and trafficking can come down to weight, location, or assumed intent. Without a skilled drug defense attorney in South Carolina, you risk conviction, incarceration, and for non-citizens, potential deportation.
Our firm provides experienced criminal defense in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. We represent clients throughout Charleston and across South Carolina, with particular focus on protecting individuals from unjust or excessive drug penalties.
Our Approach to Drug Possession & Trafficking Cases
We begin by challenging the search and seizure: Was the stop legal? Was the warrant valid? Were your rights respected? If the arrest violated your rights, we fight to suppress evidence or dismiss the case.
From marijuana to opioids and prescription drugs, we analyze every angle from lab testing procedures to confidential informants to build a strong defense tailored to your case.
What We Cover in South Carolina Drug Cases
Simple Possession (Marijuana, Cocaine, Controlled Substances)
We push for dismissal, diversion, or alternative sentencing to keep your record clean.
Possession with Intent to Distribute (PWID)
We challenge the state's claim of intent and argue for charge reduction based on facts and context.
Drug Trafficking Charges
These felony-level offenses carry mandatory sentences. We build strategic, evidence-based defenses to challenge quantity, intent, and possession claims.
School Zone or Enhanced Charges
Drug charges near schools or in certain zones carry additional penalties. We work to minimize or eliminate these enhancements.
Immigration-Impact Drug Defense
For Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking clients, we craft defenses that minimize immigration risks wherever possible.
