The Accused Are Entitled to Skilled Counsel
Oklahoma takes drug possession and drug trafficking very seriously. If you are convicted for a first-time offense, you may spend as long as 10 years in prison, plus fines. Many drug possession charges stem from routine traffic stops. The police pull you over on a pretext, search the car and arrest you for drug possession.
If you have been arrested on drug offense charges, it is important to protect your rights. You need an advocate who will negotiate on your behalf and build a strong defense. I am Bryan Stratton, criminal defense attorney. I make time for my clients 24 hours a day, seven days a week, because the police work those hours, too.
My fees are affordable, and I offer flexible payment plans. If you have been arrested and need an Oklahoma City drug possession defense attorney to visit you in jail, call 405-708-6831 for an emergency appointment. I am also available for a free initial consultation in my Oklahoma City law office weekdays, weekends and evenings.
Oklahoma Drug Crimes Defense Lawyer
I represent clients accused of the following drug crimes in state and federal court, including marijuana, cocaine and meth:
- Drug possession charged as a misdemeanor or felony
- Drug possession with intent to distribute
- Drug trafficking
- Drug manufacturing
In building a strong defense, I take the time to interview clients as soon as possible after the arrest. The details of the arrest, who was riding with you and the time of day are fresher and help me understand your version of the events.
The seriousness of the charges often depends on the type of drugs possessed and in what amounts. Simple possession of a small amount of marijuana is usually charged as a misdemeanor, while possessing large amounts typically leads to possession with intent to distribute charges — a felony.
The law is complex and constantly changing. It is important to explore the legal issue of possession. It is not uncommon for the police to stop and search a vehicle, assume that the drugs belong to the driver and charge the driver with drug possession.
