Facing Drug Charges is a serious matter!! Why you need an Attorney Immediately...

So you've been charged with a Drug Crime and don't know what to do?


Your first step should be to contact an Attorney immediately.  Failure to do so can cause much harm to your defense. 


Here are a variety of ways you can be harmed by not hiring a qualified, experienced lawyer like Attorney Paletta who is accustomed to working with Police and the District Attorney’s Office for over 20 years:

•SUSPENSION OF YOUR DRIVER’S LICENSE -
Did you know that a conviction for a drug crime in Pennsylvania will automatically cause the suspension of your Pennsylvania Driver’s License?

•REQUESTING A LAWYER STOPS INTERROGATION -

Did you know that if you tell Police that you insist upon speaking to a lawyer, Police may not ask you any more questions about the drugs?

•TALKING IS HARMFUL TO YOUR LEGAL HEALTH -
Did you know that Police will entice you to cooperate and make statements regarding the drugs, but that your statement will likely harm you by eliminating defenses that may be available if you simply remain silent?

•ILLEGAL STOP & SEARCH -
Did you know that even if you are arrested with drugs in your personal possession or in your car that you may still have defenses available including a possible Motion to Suppress, that the Police stopped or searched you illegally?


•INSURANCE INVESTIGATIONS -
Did you know that if you make a statement to an insurance company, Police can obtain that statement and use it against you?

 •MANDATORY SENTENCES -
Did you know that Felony possession of certain drugs/controlled substances can result in a required jail term?


This is why it is absolutely critical to discuss your individual case personally and confidentially with Attorney Paletta immediately before you do anything!
