Criminal Defense Attorney for Drug Arrests in the Tampa
Bay area: Pasco, Pinellas, and Hillsborough
A
drug arrest in the Tampa Bay area can leave you feeling vulnerable
and distressed. Being a suspect in a drug crime may mean you’ve
been pulled over by police, asked if they can search your
vehicle, asked if they can search your home, or accused of
possession simply because you are in the vicinity of an illegal
drug. If convicted of a drug crime, you could be subject to
search and seizure, a curfew, and drivers license suspension
for up to 2 years. Drug trafficking convictions may lead to
a mandatory prison sentence, depending on what the drug is.
Often
the only way to protect your rights is by hiring a criminal
defense attorney. The law offices of Tinny, Meyer & Piccarreto,
P.A., are committed to aggressively defending the rights of
our clients. Our team of former prosecutors is especially
valuable in providing criminal defense attorney services to
clients who have been arrested for drug charges in Clearwater,
St. Petersburg, New Port Richey, and the greater Tampa Bay
area.
Drug
charges may be a misdemeanor or a felony, either of which
can involve a prescription drug or an illegal drug. Here are
some of the many drug charges we have defended for our clients:
- Possession

to sell

Any
one of these drug charges can leave you feeling hopeless and
helpless against the prosecution, but with the assistance
of an experienced Tampa Bay criminal attorney, you can protect
your legal rights. Even if a police officer found marijuana
in your vehicle, even if you tested positive for cocaine or
meth in your system, even if an undercover detective says
you tried to illegally sell prescription painkillers, there
are many ways an experienced criminal defense lawyer can successfully
defend you in the Tampa Bay area, including in Pasco, Pinellas,
and Hillsborough counties.
While
drug charges are complicated and confusing, we can help you
focus on protecting your legal rights in a county, state,
or federal courtroom. Please call our 24-hour phone number
