Minnesota law and defense
Understanding Drug Crimes in Plymouth
Minnesota criminal law applies statewide, but the court process, local agency records, and practical details of a case depend on where it is filed. The information below explains important issues Andrew reviews when defending drug crimes cases.
Charged With a Drug Crime in Minnesota?
Drug arrests are intimidating. You may feel like the system has already decided your fate the moment the handcuffs went on. At Davis Defense, we see the bigger picture how the arrest happened, what the police actually found, whether procedures were followed, and how a conviction would affect your life. Our goal is to put you back in control by giving you clear information, a realistic view of the case, and a strategy tailored to your situation.

Possession vs. Sale: Why the Difference Matters
Possession and sale are different allegations, and the surrounding facts can change how a case is evaluated. Andrew looks at the quantity involved, where the drugs were found, who had access to the area, what statements were made, and what evidence the state claims shows an intent to sell. Those details can matter when deciding how to challenge the charge and what evidence needs to be preserved.
Common questions
Plymouth Drug Crimes FAQ
What types of drug charges does Davis Defense handle?
We handle the full range of Minnesota drug crimes, including possession, possession with intent to sell or deliver, sale and distribution, manufacturing, trafficking, conspiracy, and prescription drug offenses involving painkillers or other controlled substances.
What are the possible penalties for a drug conviction?
Penalties depend on the degree of the offense, the type and amount of the drug, whether there was an alleged intent to sell, and your prior record. A low-level possession case may carry the possibility of diversion or probation, while higher-degree controlled substance crimes can involve years in prison, heavy fines, forfeiture of property, and a permanent felony record.
Can a drug conviction affect my job, housing, or education?
A drug conviction can affect employment, housing, professional licensing, and some educational opportunities. A drug conviction alone no longer disqualifies a student from federal Title IV financial aid, although particular court orders or other program rules may matter. Andrew reviews the consequences relevant to your circumstances.
What if the police searched my car or home can that be challenged?
Often. Many drug cases turn on whether the police had a lawful reason to stop your vehicle, enter your home, or search your belongings. If your rights were violated, Andrew may be able to challenge the search and move to suppress illegally obtained evidence.
Can I be charged if drugs were found in a shared car or apartment?
You can be accused, but drugs being found in a shared space does not automatically establish who possessed them. Important facts may include where the drugs were located, who owned or controlled that area, who else had access, what statements were made, and what other evidence connects the drugs to a particular person.
