✔️Dispute claims of possession for the purpose of supply (deemed supply)
✔️Argue for reduced penalties or diversion programs where appropriate

Can Drug Charges Be Dropped in NSW?
With our extensive experience specialising in drug offence defence, we have achieved consistent success in both negotiating early dismissals of drug charges with the prosecution and providing robust courtroom defence where required.
Obtaining an early dismissal not only saves you from costly legal fees but also reduces stress. Our team identifies weaknesses in the police evidence — from how a search was conducted, to whether drug-driving tests were accurate, to the reliability of witness statements.
If the charges cannot be dropped, we focus on securing a ‘not guilty’ verdict in court. The prosecution must prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt, and we challenge every element to protect your rights.
In some situations, it may also be possible to apply for the prosecution or police to cover part of your legal costs.
