New York City Drug Charges Lawyer 

Offices Also Located in Puerto Rico

Anyone accused of a drug crime should hire an attorney before speaking to the police. An experienced drug charge lawyer can defend the rights of the accused, while thoroughly investigating the arrest to find out whether the police or federal agents violated any search and seizure regulations under the Constitution. Any violation of these laws and regulations may lead to suppression of the evidence and may get a case dropped entirely. Should drug treatment be a viable resolution to your case, Sullivan & Brill, LLP will coordinate with forensic social workers and substance abuse counselors to resolve the drug case in a non-jail fashion while at the same time get you the help you need.

 

Sullivan & Brill, LLP regularly defends clients accused of very serious drug charges. Lawyers in both New York City and Puerto Rico locations have taken on everything from large-scale international drug conspiracy cases to street buy and bust operations, to cases involving personal drug use and possession. The attorneys of Sullivan & Brill, LLP offer free initial consultations to individuals accused of the following:

 

  • Drug Possession
  • Possession With Intent to Distribute
  • Drug Trafficking
  • Sales
  • Importation

Sullivan & Brill, LLP has handled local, national, and international drug cases, including complex drug conspiracy offenses involving narcotics alleged to be from South America. Rachel Brill recently defended the case of United States of America v. Acosta-Colon which led to the holding that a de facto arrest by federal agents without probable cause required suppression of the controlled substances- the case was ultimately dismissed upon remand.

 

In another case, United States of America v. Angelje Sherpa, a Nepalese national, and major political figure, was wrongfully charged with being a drug lord in an international drug conspiracy that involved Asia, the Middle East, and the United States. Attorney Steven Brill was successful in not only proving his client’s innocence to the United States Attorneys, but he achieved both dismissal of all criminal charges and a grant of political asylum.
