Drug Crimes
Central Missouri Drug Crimes Defense Attorneys
It is very important to have a dedicated defense lawyer experienced in drug crimes on your side after being charged. A good drug crimes defense lawyer can thoroughly investigate the arrest to find out if the police violated search and seizure laws. If they did, the case could be thrown out of court.

We concentrate our full efforts on every case, working hard to get sentences minimized or getting clients freed from all charges. And for anyone who needs a lawyer, we will meet with you free of charge.
We can help with any drug charge, involving any drug, from meth, cocaine, crack and heroin to marijuana and prescription medication. The charges we can help with include
- Possession
- Trafficking
- Possession of drug paraphernalia
- Sale, distribution of a controlled substance
- Manufacture or cultivation
- Possessing, buying or manufacturing precursors for meth production: anhydrous ammonia, pseudoephedrine
In Missouri, the punishments for these charges range from misdemeanors for paraphernalia possession to federal felonies for large-scale distribution charges. Stan Clay and his fellow attorneys have experience in both state and federal courts, and can aggressively fight against any charge, no matter how serious.
As we mentioned before, one of the main drug crime defenses is to carefully study the police’s search and seizure techniques. There are many different, complex rules involved in search warrants, consent searches, plain view searches – and you may be surprised how often the police violate these rules.
You may be even more surprised to hear that many lawyers don’t thoroughly investigate their cases to find out if there are search issues. Many handle hundreds of cases and settle for whatever the prosecuting attorney offers, just to get the case over with. But at Stan Clay LLC, Attorneys at Law, we take on fewer cases so that we can give each client the thorough representation he or she deserves.
