Drug Possession

Aggressive Drug Crimes and Drug Possession Defense in Michigan

The penalties for drug crimes are harsh. The Dorn Law Firm will fight to clear you of charges or to minimize the impact on your freedom and your life.

Southfield, Michigan criminal defense lawyer Heather Dorn knows all the ways to challenge drug charges. Her aggressive representation has helped hundreds of people in Oakland County, Macomb County, Wayne County and the metro Detroit area to avoid the worst consequences. Contact our office immediately or call 248.438.8716 if you are charged with:

  • Misdemeanor possession of marijuana or drug paraphernalia
  • Drug possession (cocaine, crack, ecstasy, prescription narcotics)
  • Possession with intent to distribute
  • Drug sales/trafficking/transportation
  • Writing false prescriptions for medical use marijuana

Challenging Your Drug Possession Arrest

Our top priority is to avoid jail or prison for our clients. Our skilled defense lawyer works to get charges dismissed or evidence thrown out to gain leverage for a favorable plea agreement. If you have a fairly clean record (no prior convictions for drugs or violent crimes), she may be able to get you into a diversion program that keeps a drug possession conviction off your record in exchange for addressing addiction issues and staying clean for a period of time.

With 13 years of experience, defense attorney Heather Dorn knows how to attack the prosecution's case. She examines every drug possession case for violations of the Fourth Amendment (illegal search and seizure) or Fifth Amendment (coerced confessions). She makes sure that your constitutional rights are honored regarding testimony of informants or undercover agents, identification, or charges that don't fit the crime.
