Building an Effective Defense to Serious Drug Charges

Contact our office to learn about the most effective way to resolve your criminal defense problem.
Know where you stand from the start
A defense lawyer's ability to negotiate a favorable deal with the prosecutor is usually the result of a demonstrated willingness to try the case from a position of strength. By understanding how the prosecution will approach its case from the start, then putting in the time from the beginning of the case to identify promising factual and legal defenses, constitutional arguments and gaps in the evidence, we basically beat the government to the punch. We strive to work up a drug defense case to the point where it makes better sense for the prosecution to see the case our way than it does to hold out for a conviction on the original charge.
Hard work in the beginning of the case is the key to successful drug defense
Both trial preparation and bargaining leverage are significantly strengthened by committing time and effort to your case from the start. By coming into the case early, we can develop important facts to support motions to suppress evidence against you. As an experienced criminal trial and appellate lawyer, Jonathan R. Sennett will stand up for your rights and hold the prosecution to their responsibility to see that justice is done in your case. Whether that is testing the proof at trial or negotiating alternatives to incarceration through the many new opportunities under the recent Rockefeller Drug Law Reforms. Our ultimate goal is to achieve the best possible result for you at the earliest possible moment in the case.
We represent adults, juveniles, college and university students and motorists caught with drugs while driving the New York Thruway. When your personal liberty is at stake, you should never leave your defense to chance. Contact an experienced and highly skilled criminal trial attorney at the Kingston office of Jonathan R.
