At Surovell Isaacs Petersen & Levy, our Fairfax drug possession attorneys understand how important it is for our clients to receive representation that is aggressive and effective. Our attorneys bring decades of experience that allows us to build solid defense strategies that are thorough and meticulous. We will look to every possible avenue of securing a dismissal, acquittal or negotiated plea.

Attacking the Admissibility of Evidence

We will examine the evidence that the prosecutor intends to present and look for any issues that would bar that evidence from being presented at trial. Police are required to follow certain procedures when deciding to stop you, when searching for evidence and at all other stages of your arrest. Any failure to adhere to those protocols may mean that any evidence gained from an illegal search is inadmissible.

The Government also must prove that the substance at issue is an illegal substance. The Government must follow strict evidentiary and constitutional rules to ensure the integrity of the process, give you the ability to challenge their testing, and ensure your right to confront your accuser under the 7^th Amendment. We will make the Government meet their burden of proof.
