Drug Offenses
TRAFFICKING, DISTRIBUTION, POSSESSION WITH INTENT TO DISTRIBUTE, AND POSSESSION
Attorney Pamela Saia-Rogers has extensive experience handling drug related charges in the Massachusetts court system. These types of charges can cause a defendant to spend a significant time in prison and/or also has driver’s license consequences as well as probationary terms and conditions that can become quite onerous. The handling of the cases is best done with an experienced attorney, such as Pamela Saia-Rogers.
Procedurally, drug related cases need to be handled carefully and a great deal of legal knowledge is needed to do so. The law enforcement official’s conduct in the arrest of the defendant needs to be scrutinized since many cases can be thrown out of court based on a good Motion to Suppress. Attorney Saia-Rogers has year’s worth of experience in this area and a sampling of her results and verdicts can be seen in the “Results” section of the website. Please look there to see how some drug related offenses have been handled.
Motion to Dismiss and Motions to Suppress Evidence or Statements are entirely important in defending a drug related offense. After the pretrial hearings are held, Attorney Pamela Saia-Rogers will file one or more of these motions if it is applicable to the fact pattern. On a Motion to Dismiss, no testimony will be heard, just oral argument. On a Motion to Suppress, oral testimony will be taken and then oral argument will be heard. Attorney Saia-Rogers will strive for an approval of her Motion, and move for the case to be dismissed.
Since there are many collateral consequences to a guilty finding on a drug related offense, proper handling of the matter is necessary. Attorney Pamela Saia-Rogers can provide that proper handling and a zealous defense. Call Attorney Saia-Rogers today at 978-521-9600 for a free consultation.
