St. Paul Drug Crime Defense Attorney

Possession, Sales, Cultivation, Manufacturing, Prescription Drugs and Other Drug Crimes

Different charges fall into the category of a drug crime, and all convictions include very harsh penalties in terms of prison sentences and fines. America's long-fought "War on Drugs" has given law enforcement great authority to investigate and pursue drug crimes, and once the suspect is formally charged with an offense, prosecutors work vigorously to achieve guilty verdicts. Ambitious prosecutors carefully track their "conviction percentage", and without immediate defense action, you are at high risk for terrible penalties. For these reasons and more, facing charges for various drug crimes can be a frightening and dangerous situation. It is crucial that you seek help from a St. Paul criminal defense attorney who can provide guidance and quality legal representation throughout the process.

The charges that make up the drug crimes family are expansive in Minnesota. Charges of manufacturing, possession, distribution and sales are common. Law enforcement can be overzealous in their pursuit of those they believe are engaged in the illegal drug trade, and this aggressive approach can lead to serious errors. A prosecutor's case can become impossible to execute effectively if there are procedural errors, or if critical information or evidence was attained improperly. This type of mistake is far more common than expected, and an expert advocate like Attorney Justin M. Schiks may be able to use these errors along with other supporting evidence to lead a jury to a more favorable conclusion.
