When you’re facing a drug charge, the stakes are high. Your freedom, your future, and your criminal record are all on the line. That’s why choosing the right Jacksonville drug crime attorney isn’t just important – it’s essential. At Dale Carson Law, we offer free consultations because we believe you deserve real answers before making one of the biggest decisions of your life.
Here are five questions to ask during your consultation to help you choose the right defense team.
1. What is your experience with drug crime cases?
Not every criminal defense lawyer has hands-on experience with drug charges, particularly complex charges such as drug trafficking or conspiracy. Ask how often they defend clients facing possession, trafficking, or distribution accusations – and what kind of results they’ve achieved. Our attorneys have decades of combined experience handling drug crime cases across Florida, and we know how to build strong defenses from day one.
2. How familiar are you with Jacksonville courts and prosecutors?
Local experience matters. A Jacksonville drug crime attorney who knows the Duval County court system and understands how prosecutors approach drug cases can tailor your defense accordingly. At Dale Carson Law, our team includes former law enforcement professionals who know how investigations work from the inside out, giving you an advantage in court.
3. What defense strategies might apply to my case?
Every case is different. Your attorney should be ready to identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, whether that’s an illegal search, faulty lab results, or a violation of your constitutional rights. We’ll break down your options clearly, so you understand the strategy behind every decision.
4. What penalties could I face, and what are the possible outcomes?
You deserve honesty about what’s ahead. From fines and probation to potential jail time, your attorney should walk you through all possible outcomes as well as how they’ll work to reduce or dismiss your charges. Our team believes in transparency and proactive defense planning from the very first meeting.
5. What are your fees, and how do payment plans work?
Knowing costs up front helps you focus on what matters – your defense. We’re always clear about our fees and offer flexible payment options when possible, because we believe everyone deserves access to quality legal representation.
