Toronto Drug Possession Law Firm

Ontario Drug Trafficking Defence Lawyer · GTA Drug Possession Defence

If you are facing a drug possession charge or are under investigation for any narcotics offence, such as trafficking or importation, the lawyer you have fighting for you will make an important difference in the outcome of your case. It is not enough that your defence lawyer knows the law. All lawyers are supposed to know the law. It's what your lawyer brings to the table in terms of experience and knowledge of the right strategies and understanding the key players that often makes the difference.

It's Not Just the Seriousness of the Charge. The Process Determines the Strategy.

I am Toronto drug possession defence lawyer Aitan M. Lerner. For nearly 13 years, I have been representing clients charged with offences relating to drug possession, trafficking and importation in courts throughout the GTA, including York Region, Peel Region, Durham Region and Halton Region. By knowing the prosecutors involved in your case, I am often able to determine which strategies make most sense. Sometimes, it may be best to appeal to the Crown to have your case tried in a summary conviction court. Depending upon the circumstances of your charges and the prosecution's strategy, you may have a better opportunity for an acquittal by accepting a charge for an indictable offence. In drug possession charges and serious charges related to trafficking and importation, you cannot place too much importance on intelligence strategies that address the circumstances of your specific case.

Recognition for Hard Work

I won't make promises about the outcome of your drug possession case. No lawyer can or should. But I will point to the recognition my law firm has earned among colleagues, prosecutors and judges for my capacity to go to every length to help my clients get the best possible outcome. Throughout your case, I promise to be compassionate about the predicament you are in, thorough in my research and investigation, and the hardest working defence lawyer you will find.

You are in a tough spot right now. That doesn't mean you are guilty, and it doesn't mean you are heading for jail. It may help to know that you will get through this someday. Everyone does. But it does mean that your best option is to hire a criminal defence lawyer who will provide fearless advocacy based on experience and knowledge of the law, the system, and what the prosecution and judges expect. My law firm has a proven record of success in drug crime cases in all courts throughout the Toronto area, including York Region, Peel Region, Durham Region and Halton Region.

Contact me to discuss the circumstances of your charges, including:

  • Drug possession, importation of narcotics
  • Marijuana grow operations, meth lab operations, drug manufacturing
  • Prescription medicine fraud
  • Conspiracy charges related to trafficking, money laundering fraud, tax evasion
  • Drug charges involving extradition, search and seizure laws
  • DUI charges, narcotics found in vehicle

Is Extradition Possible in Your Drug Trafficking Case?

Drug trafficking and importation offences often involve multiple suspects. If you are under investigation for a federal offence, it is possible that you will face extradition to a province seeking jurisdiction over your case. Where your case is tried often makes an important difference in the final outcome. Extradition isn't automatic. Talk to me right away. I have extensive experience fighting to keep criminal cases in the jurisdiction and venue in which they belong.
