DiGiulio
Utley, LLC Criminal Defense Practice
New Orleans, Louisiana
<<Back
to Criminal Defense
Drug and narcotics offenses range from
simple drug possession to narcotics trafficking
and importation. Conviction can result
in strict penalties including fines and
jail time. Whether you are charged by
the State of Louisiana or the federal
government, a drug charge means you need
experienced help.
Our law firm often performs an intensive
investigation of the facts surrounding
drug charges so that we can effectively
build a case in your defense. Contact
us now for a free consultation
and evaluation of your case.
Whether the charge is drug possession,
operating a meth lab or selling prescription
drugs on the street, drug cases almost
always rely on the ability of the prosecution
to present physical evidence that was
obtained in a legal search.
In order for a law enforcement official
to seize drugs, drug paraphernalia or
other evidence and use it against you
in court, they must comply with their
own regulations and they may not violate
your constitutional rights.
If you are facing a drug charge, we will
investigate the actions taken by officers
during the search or your arrest, and
we will challenge any evidence that was
obtained illegally.
Our attorneys have extensive experience
and skill defending Louisiana and federal
drug or narcotics offenses, such as:
Drug possession (Including, but not
limited to, marijuana and marijuana plants,
heroin, cocaine, meth labs, methamphetamine
production, date rape drugs, prescription
pills)
Sale or distribution, or intent to sell
or distribute (Including, but not
limited to, marijuana and marijuana plants,

Federal Drug
Offenses and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines
If your case is charged in federal court,
you may be exposed to additional counts
that can increase sentence under the federal
sentencing guidelines. The federal guidelines
are used to determine your sentence based
largely on the number of counts and the
quantity of the drugs involved. In such
cases, our goal is to limit the government's
ability to prove your involvement in a
larger conspiracy.
As a law firm, we are compassionate in
guiding our clients through the criminal
justice system and work to resolve every
case in the best interests of our clients.
