Extensive Experience Defending People Charged with Drug Crimes
If you have been charged with a drug crime, from marijuana or cocaine possession to the manufacturing of methamphetamines, you want an experienced attorney to protect your constitutional rights.

At the office of Kenneth D. Teal, Attorney at Law, we have protected the rights of criminal defendants throughout west Georgia since 1991, including people charged with drug crimes. We have a high rate of success in criminal trials, and are never afraid to take your case before a judge and jury to get the results you need and deserve.

Our Drug Crimes Practice
We aggressively defend individuals charged with misdemeanor or felony drug offenses, whether in state or federal court. We handle the defense of all types of drug charges, including:
- Possession or possession with intent to sell
- Sale, distribution or trafficking of controlled substances
- Manufacture of illegal drugs
We take cases involving all types of illegal drugs, including marijuana, cocaine, crack, heroin, and methamphetamines, as well as prescription drugs.
When you hire us to handle the defense of a drug crime, we will carefully review the facts, evidence and circumstances surrounding your arrest. We will look at whether the police had probable cause for any search, seizure or arrest, and whether you were properly advised of your rights before you had any conversations with law enforcement officers. We often use private investigators to help us gather the evidence we need for acquittal or a reduction of the charges against you.
We also have extensive experience helping people successfully obtain a bond in a high level drug case. If you face a serious drug felony and want to post a bond, let us handle your bond hearing.
If you have been charged with a minor drug offense, such as simple possession, we may be able to get your case in the Troup County drug court, a pilot program currently underway. In drug court, you may be able to have all charges dismissed without a formal conviction on your record if you enter into a treatment program and meet all the terms set by the prosecutor.
