Defending Your Rights and Freedom
Attorneys Brett M. Bloomston and Joseph J. Basgier, III, believe that case preparation can provide the key to success in criminal defense cases. They will closely review the evidence and all available defense strategies. In drug cases, these defense strategies frequently hinge on the Fourth Amendment, search and seizure and chain of possession issues. Depending on their findings and the client's wishes, they will recommend a legal strategy designed to achieve a dismissal, negotiated plea or victory at trial.
Alternatives to Conviction and Jail
First-time offenders may be eligible for drug court or a deferred prosecution outcome. Successful completion of such a program can allow you to avoid jail and a permanent conviction on your record. Not everyone is a suitable candidate for these programs. For those who are, the court must be convinced of your desire to successfully complete the program.
The attorneys at the firm understand the various programs available and how to negotiate with the prosecution and court to obtain these alternative outcomes. They also work with a number of drug counselors and rehabilitation facilities in the Birmingham area and can help you find the help you may need.
