Experienced Defense Against Drug Crime Charges in Nassau County

Any criminal charges can have serious consequences for your life, but the results of a conviction on a drug-related offense can be especially severe. As former Nassau County Assistant District Attorneys, the New York drug crime lawyers at Collins Gann McCloskey & Barry PLLC know that prosecutors take drug crimes very seriously. About 50 percent of all prison inmates are incarcerated on a drug-related offense, which demonstrates the pressure on police and the courts to stem crimes involving drugs.

At Collins Gann McCloskey & Barry PLLC, we know how district attorneys strategize and structure prosecutions of drug crimes, and also how their biases and the pressure related to drug crimes can lead to mistakes in those strategies. In the American legal system, where the burden of proof lies with the prosecution, a single mistake may be all the defense needs to secure a not guilty verdict.

Even if the case against you is unshakable, our Long Island drug crime lawyers can still provide invaluable assistance reducing your sentence. The severity of your punishment depends on such factors as:

  • The particular circumstances of your case
  • Any prior convictions
  • Your legal representation
  • Personal biases of the officials and court personnel involved

We know how to use these factors and other legal options such as rehabilitation and diversion programs to reduce your charges or the severity of your sentence.

The attorneys at the Nassau County law firm of Collins Gann McCloskey & Barry PLLC know how to develop strong legal defenses against Nassau County drug charges. Contact us today online or at (516) 218-5131. We are available for our clients 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
