In any drug case, you always have options for mitigating the charges and consequences when an experienced defense attorney represents you. Remember that you have the right to remain silent. Do not say anything to police officers, investigators or prosecuting attorneys without a dedicated defense attorney present.
At Sweeney and Associates, LLC, our Quincy drug crimes attorneys vigorously defend people throughout Quincy, Canton, and across Massachusetts who have been charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance, including possession of:
Penalties for drug possession convictions may include serious prison time, fines in the thousands of dollars, probation and mandatory drug treatment.
As your attorneys, we can work to significantly reduce the consequences you face. Your level of success is often greater the earlier you get us involved. We will evaluate your case for free, keep all communications confidential and provide you with attentive service throughout the legal process.
Attorney Richard Sweeney knows when and how to challenge a case. He is a retired Boston police sergeant detective who commanded one of Boston's elite drug units for years. For over 10 years of his career, he trained officers across the state on investigative techniques, arrest procedures and evidence collection. This means that if police officers made a procedural mistake or violated your constitutional rights, Attorney Sweeney will discover it and use that knowledge to your advantage.
Our aim will be to build a strong defense based on evidence that is favorable to your best possible outcome. We will work to:
We defend working professionals, health care workers, college students, blue collar workers, white collar workers, executives, homemakers, out-of-state visitors and many others. We protect individuals and families in times of extreme hardship, and we can help you manage all the challenges you face.
Sometimes a plea bargain is a good deal, and sometimes your best possible outcome can only be achieved at trial. We will negotiate with the prosecutor on your behalf, and we will work only in your best interests in all legal forums.
