Drug Charges Defense Lawyer
Even a misdemeanor conviction for marijuana possession can prevent you from getting a job. You may also be barred from obtaining financial aid for college. There are other significant consequences to a drug crimes conviction. For instance, in Johnson County, Kansas, all people who have been arrested and convicted are listed in a public record that is now online. There is also a web site for the State of Kansas which lists court cases for other Kansas counties and cities, including Wyandotte County and Douglas County. It pays to retain an experienced drug defense law firm, such as the Schoenig Law Firm, LLC.

Have you been arrested and booked for drug charges or other charges and now the police are offering to drop the charges if you serve as a confidential informant? Before you agree, please speak to a lawyer to know your rights and to discern whether this makes sense in your particular situation.
Knock and Talk
This happens when the police just show up at your door and ask to talk to you about an ongoing investigation. You do not have to talk to them. You do not have to let them in. If this happens to you, your next phone call should be to a lawyer who can protect your rights.
Search Warrants
It is common in drug cases for the police to investigate you without you even knowing what is happening. The police will often work with a confidential informant who is providing them with information about you. The police can also collect your trash from the curb without your knowledge or permission in the hopes of obtaining evidence to use against you. Once enough information is collected, the police will then work with a prosecutor to obtain a search warrant for your residence. If the police come to your house with a search warrant, they are allowed to search your entire residence without your permission. If this happens to you, contact an attorney immediately before talking to the police.
