Manhattan Drug Distribution Lawyer
The Law Office of Mark A. Bederow, P.C., defends clients charged with drug possession and other drug-related crimes in federal and state courts. Federal drug statutes have mandatory minimum sentences. Despite a recent easing of some of the most draconian "Rockefeller" drug crime sentences, the consequences of conviction remain severe.
Our law firm defends clients charged with drug possession, drug trafficking and distribution of street drugs and prescription medications, including:
- Marijuana
- Cocaine
- Heroin
- Ecstasy (MDMA)
- OxyContin
- Percocet
Mr. Bederow has represented individuals, including pharmacists involved in online pharmacies and the diversion of prescription medication. He has also represented college students investigated with shipment of medications such as Adderall.
Many of our clients are professional people who have gotten caught up in the system for possession of a small amount of an illegal substance. Because they are unfamiliar with the criminal justice system, they are extremely vulnerable. An experienced criminal defense lawyer, Mr. Bederow can protect their interests and work to minimize the negative consequences of an arrest and prosecution.
Protecting Your Constitutional Rights
In all drug crime cases, we pay special attention to how the police obtained the evidence against you. If the evidence was a product of an illegal search or seizure, we will move to have it ruled inadmissible so that it cannot be used against you.
In addition to defending clients in court, Mr. Bederow frequently represents doctors, attorneys, pharmacists, stockbrokers and other licensed professionals in connection with issues related to their professional licenses, including disciplinary proceedings that stem from an arrest.
