We Advocate for People Facing Drug Charges in Montgomery County
It doesn’t matter whether you’re a habitual offender or facing your first criminal charges; you deserve comprehensive legal representation. Since 2009, we’ve represented people facing charges related to:
- Drug possession (yes, even marijuana; recreational use is still illegal)
- Drug manufacturing and delivery of a controlled substance
- Illegal manufacture of a controlled substance
- Possession of drug paraphernalia
- Intent to distribute drugs
- Driving under the influence of drugs
Depending on the details of your arrest, the state may charge you with multiple offenses stemming from drug crimes under the Texas Controlled Substances Act. For instance, suppose the police found you were growing marijuana in your home, and there were children present. In that instance, you could face child endangerment charges alongside manufacture of a controlled substance.
We’ve said it once, and we’ll say it again: you deserve comprehensive legal support. Blass Law combats more than your drug charges; we fight any charge that threatens your freedom.
Our Montgomery County Drug Defense Lawyer Handles Cases Related to Many Substances
The charges you face largely depend on the type and amount of controlled substance allegedly in your possession. Having a few grams of marijuana will likely result in lesser charges than a few grams of cocaine.
We champion the rights of people charged with having, distributing, or manufacturing:
- Meth
- Ecstasy (molly)
- Cocaine, including crack
- Illicit prescription drugs, like Valium and Xanax
- Heroin
- Fentanyl
- Bath salts
- Marijuana, including synthetic weed
Law enforcement officers may say there’s no hope in escaping the charges you face. Yet, you’re not alone in a situation like this. You have the support of Attorney Jay Blass Cohen and everyone at Blass Law.
How Our Montgomery County Drug Crime Lawyer Fights for You
Our criminal defense attorney wastes no time building your case. From the get-go, we:
Evaluate the Circumstances of Your Arrest
The details of your arrest play a major role in the upcoming criminal proceedings. Our investigation aims to answer these questions:
- Did the police have probable cause to search your vehicle or home?
- Were you read your Miranda rights at the arrest scene?
- Was there any misconduct or violation of your rights?
- Did the police go through the proper channels to collect evidence?
- Were you denied a lawyer during questioning?
Based on the answers to these questions, your criminal defense lawyer can build a case that aims to get your charges acquitted.
Move to Have Any Improperly Gathered Evidence Removed
The prosecutor needs evidence to secure a guilty verdict. We review this information and make sure it was properly collected. For instance, imagine that you were pulled over by an officer who was flagging random motorists. He smelled marijuana in your vehicle, and you were arrested.
Because the officer had no reason to suspect a crime in the first place, they had no reason to pull you over. So, we could move to have any evidence they collected suppressed from trial, weakening the case against you.
Negotiate With the Prosecutor
In some cases, it could be in your best interest to take a plea deal. This could result in fewer penalties and avoid the complexities of a drawn-out trial. Your Montgomery County drug crime lawyer can explain your options and share whether a plea deal could be advantageous to protect your future.
Advocate for You at Trial
On the day of your trial, Attorney Jay Blass Cohen will defend you as though his own future is on the line. We’re not intimidated by big city prosecutors; we’ve faced them all before, securing positive outcomes time and time again.
Check Out the Results We’ve Secured for Drug Crime Defendants
You’d be surprised at some of the cases that Attorney Jay Blass Cohen has won. He’s even managed cases that other lawyers were too afraid to take on. Here are some of our stories:
- Things didn’t look good for our client when they were confronted by law enforcement; they had 46 kilos of cocaine in their possession (that’s more than 100 pounds of cocaine). With our advocacy, we had the case dismissed from court.
- The police found our client in the middle of a roadway, asleep in his car. Blood tests showed that he tested positive for a host of prescription drugs, including hydrocodone and other mind-altering substances. We secured a “not guilty” verdict.
- This isn’t exactly a drug offense, but drugs were involved. Our client was charged with capital murder after allegedly shooting and killing a DEA informant. At the time, the informant had an 18-wheeler full of drugs. Jay Blass Cohen secured a “not guilty” verdict at trial.
Our Montgomery County drug charge lawyer goes above and beyond for those going through the criminal justice system. We hope to add your case’s outcome to our growing list of positive results.
