Felony Drug Possession

Defenses to Drug Possession Charges

In this online video, San Diego criminal defense attorney David P. Shapiro discusses felony drug possession charges. These usually involve allegations of a large amount of drugs in your car, in your house, or under your personal control. Mr. Shapiro points out that the mere fact that you have been charged does not mean you will be convicted. Issues such as illegal search and seizure – including defective warrants, warrantless searches, and others – can provide a defense that could lead to a dismissal of your case.
