I-40 Drug Crimes Defense Attorney

Sedona Narcotics Trafficking Lawyer

Interstate 40 is a frequently traveled highway for people passing through Arizona as well as people traveling to a wide variety of locations throughout the state. This is also a frequent target by law enforcement when it comes to profiling and arresting people for drug distribution crimes. If this has happened to you, you should seek out a criminal defense attorney who is familiar with the area, the law and these types of cases.

Certified criminal law specialist Thomas A. Gorman has been defending people charged with all types of drug crimes, including drug distribution, for over 25 years. He is committed to protecting the rights of the accused and providing a strong defense using the evidence available and challenging evidence that is obtained improperly.

If you are facing charges of interstate drug trafficking or any other narcotics charge, before you speak with the police, consult an attorney with the experience and knowledge to help protect your future. Contact Thomas A. Gorman today to schedule a free, confidential consultation.

Know Your Rights: Drug Distribution Profiling

In Arizona, the police and the department of public safety have created a profile they use when determining who to pull over in the hopes of finding evidence of illegal transportation of drugs from Mexico or to other states. This drug courier profile targets single men who are driving alone in rental cars. The police will pull the car over for a traffic violation, and while one officer questions the driver, another officer with a drug-sniffing dog will walk around the car searching for evidence of drugs, such as methamphetamine, marijuana or possession of any other drugs that will be used for sale.

This tactic is in violation of your Fourth Amendment right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures. Attorney Thomas Gorman will be able to show that this profiling took place and move for any evidence obtained in the traffic stop to be suppressed. If the motion is successful, the charges against you may be reduced or even dismissed.

Helping People Nationwide Who Are Charged in Arizona

If you are arrested and charged with drug distribution or any other drug charge as a result of this scenario in Arizona, but reside elsewhere, attorney Gorman can represent you in the appropriate court, including Coconino, Mohave or Maricopa superior courts. He has had substantial success with suppression motions and hearings as well as having charges dismissed, obtaining not-guilty verdicts at trial and having convictions overturned on appeal.
