Drug Offenses

Massachusetts Drug Charges Defense Attorney

Drug charges can have serious and devastating consequences. Typically, the larger the amount of the illegal drugs involved, the more serious the consequences and penalties. At the Law Offices of James J. Cipoletta, we have extensive experience representing individuals facing drug charges or investigations on both the state and federal level throughout greater Boston and across the North Shore.

You have rights. We will be a trusted advocate on your behalf to ensure those rights are protected throughout every stage of the legal process. Contact our firm immediately to discuss your case with a knowledgeable, confident, and experienced criminal defense lawyer.

If you have been accused of a crime involving steroids, ecstasy, heroin, marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamines (meth), Oxycotin and other prescription drugs, or another illegal or illegally obtained substance, we will evaluate the charges against you, investigate the circumstances surrounding your arrest, and develop a strong case in your defense. We provide high quality defense to individuals facing the following drug charges:

  • Conspiracy
  • Drug importation
  • Drug trafficking
  • Drug possession
  • Drug distribution
  • Possession with intent to distribute
  • Paraphernalia

In many cases, individuals are accused of or indicted on crimes they did not commit simply because they were set up by an individual cooperating with federal or state law enforcement or the government, or who has become an informant working off their own violations. These situations often raise issues such as illegal wiretapping, Title III telephone intercepts, or illegal searches. We will attack the sufficiency of warrants or affidavits as well as the illegal searches of homes or people that are connected with drug investigations.

We will attack the sufficiency of the warrants and other documents as well as the execution of wiretap orders. We will investigate all of the circumstances surrounding your drug arrest.

Attorney Cipoletta has over 25 years of experience handling the most complex drug charge cases. Our law firm works closely with former FBI and intelligence agents, as well as forensic experts, forensic chemists, and other experts in the defense of his clients.

If you are facing state or federal misdemeanor or felony drug charges, you need a skilled, experienced, confident legal advocate to protect your rights and represent your interests at every stage of the legal process. We can help. Contact us today.
