Attorneys defending Little Rock, Arkansas residents in State and Federal drug possession cases involving marijuana, methamphetamine, prescription medications, and cocaine

Possession charges can be filed as either a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the quantity of narcotics involved. These cases are often filed in state court. Under some circumstances, one may be facing federal criminal charges. Possession cases are often decided by whether or not the rights of the accused were violated. If your Fourth Amendment rights were not respected by authorities then it may be possible to prevent the drugs from being introduced at trial. Hiring an attorney who is versed in the area of illegal search and seizure is critical to your defense.

Patrick Benca is a criminal defense attorney who has handled numerous cases dealing with the possession of narcotics. Such matters have included allegations that the defendant possessed any of the following:

  • Marijuana
  • Cocaine
  • Methamphetamine
  • Ecstasy
  • Heroin
  • Prescription drugs (Oxycontin, Xanax, Vicodin, Valium)

Once retained we will immediately obtain the police reports and other documentation. We will also visit the scene of the incident to determine if it can be established that your rights were violated. If we determine that your Fourth Amendment rights have been infringed upon then we will file a Motion to Suppress the evidence.
