Southwest Florida Drug Manufacturing Defense
For law enforcement and prosecutors, breaking up a marijuana grow house ranks right up there with seizing a big drug shipment. State and federal agencies have devoted substantial resources and special investigators to combat marijuana production in Florida.
If you are suspected of cultivating, manufacturing or distributing marijuana, you need an attorney with experience in these cases. Do not make statements to police or consent to a search. Call the law office of Charles M. Harris, P.A. in Fort Myers immediately at 239-935-5703.
Marijuana Grow Houses
I am a criminal defense lawyer with over 30 years of experience in state and federal courts. I have handled drug possession, drug trafficking and manufacturing cases across Southwest Florida, from Sarasota to Naples. I know how to find the holes in the prosecution's case that result in dismissals, acquittals, reduced charges or lesser sentences.
If a house simply smells of marijuana, it is grounds for a search warrant. Suspiciously high electric bills and water bills may be probable cause for a warrant. Once a warrant is served, pot plants or cuttings, high wattage lights, irrigation apparatus or scales might be sufficient evidence of a grow house.
If police have a warrant, you cannot stop them from entering, but until then you have the right to refuse a search and to refuse to answer questions. Either way, you should contact me.
If you have already been arrested, I will find out what evidence the prosecutor has. Do they have a reasonable basis to allege that your property is a marijuana grow house, or that you were involved in manufacturing or processing?
I will represent you in all court hearings, in motions to suppress evidence, in negotiations, or at trial and sentencing. I have been successful in avoiding the stiff prison term for drug manufacturing, or at least minimizing the punishment.
