Strategic Defense for Drug Charges in North Carolina
Although the prospects for the future may seem troubling if you have been charged with a drug crime, things may not be as grim as they seem. With these types of cases, we have several potential options. In some cases, we may want to mount a thorough and aggressive defense and challenge the government’s accusations. In other situations, we may wish to negotiate with the prosecutors. It is often possible to arrange a significant reduction or even an outright dismissal of the charges.
We can help you poke holes in the prosecution’s argument. We may be able to help you prove that:
- The items seized are not illegal drugs to begin with, or were not illegal for you to possess
- The police influenced you to commit a crime, thereby committing entrapment
- You had a legal reason for possessing the drugs in question
- The police had no lawful reason to stop or search you
- The drugs were not in your possession
The police will often try to convince you to talk to them without first speaking to a lawyer, saying they will help you. They may even offer to reduce or dismiss the charges in exchange for your cooperation, which is something they have no power to do. The law guarantees you the right to consult with an attorney. Make the most of your rights and call one before you start making decisions without knowing the full consequences of your actions.

Mr Avery and his team are great, I needed some help with a criminal matter and was looking around to find an attorney that would be absolutely truthful regarding my case and someone that wouldn’t just want to take my money. I’ve had bad experiences in the past, but Mr. Avery was on top of it and very insightful, he kept me informed on the process every step of the way. He was very knowledgeable. I felt like I was in great hands and never had to stress. Thank you Trevor and the team!- Lily G.

Very upfront honest lawyer. Tough to find that integrity now a days in a attorney. He couldn't do everything and said so upfront gave a price and even offered a deposit of much less. Referred another attorney that could do everything. For that, I give five stars. Some might think it's much but time is money and appreciate yours and your honesty. (He doesn't get paid for consultation many charge for that) Thank you. Staff was super nice. She called me immediately when I left a email. He got back exactly when he said he would and discussed options.- Christina B.
