BAKERSFIELD DRUG CRIMES LAWYERS
Effective Legal Strategies for Drug Charges in California
The state of California, though it recently legalized the recreational use of marijuana, is still extremely harsh when it comes to convicting other drug crimes. Whether you have been arrested or charged for simple possession or large-scale trafficking, combating the sheer force of what’s to come is nearly impossible without the experience and expertise of a legal team to advocate on your behalf.
At Brehmer Law Corporation, our criminal defense attorneys will identify where law enforcement made an error as well as any misconduct on their part. Our priority is having your entire case dropped or minimized as much as possible, which is often a possibility through a motion to suppress evidence.

If even the slightest misconduct is discovered, you are instantly at an advantage and can strike this from your history.
