If you have been charged with a drug crime in San Diego, an important factor in determining the seriousness of your case is the type and quantity of illegal drugs involved. Possession of a few pounds has more serious consequences than possession of a few ounces, for example. The severity of the drug charges will also hinge on whether you have a prior criminal record.
The first line of defense in any drug case is to evaluate whether or not the police conducted an illegal search of your home, car or your person.

Under the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, you have right to be protected against such illegal searches and seizures.
