Defending Your Rights With
Over 20 Years Of Trial Experience

Strong Defense From A Skilled Camden County Narcotics Crime Lawyer

If you have been accused of a narcotics crime in Camden County, you could be facing serious legal trouble. You need a skilled lawyer who can fight for your rights.

I am attorney Christopher C. Hoffner, and I have extensive experience providing quality legal representation against drug charges. If you are dealing with a drug arrest, I am prepared to stand by your side.

How Severe Are the Penalties For Narcotics Crimes?

The penalties under New Jersey drug laws depend on the substance, quantity and circumstances of the case. Convictions can result in:

  • Drug possession: Fines, probation and possible jail time
  • Drug possession with intent to distribute: Harsher penalties, including long prison sentences
  • Drug trafficking: Mandatory minimum prison time, especially for large-scale distribution
  • Drug paraphernalia possession: Criminal charges, fines and possible incarceration
  • Controlled substances violations in a school zone: Enhanced penalties with additional jail time

A narcotics conviction can have lifelong consequences, affecting employment, housing and personal relationships.

What Is The Process For Defending Against A Narcotics Charge In New Jersey?

A strong defense starts with understanding the details of your case. I take an aggressive approach by:

  • Reviewing the arrest: I investigate whether the police violated your rights, such as conducting an unlawful search and seizure.
  • Challenging the evidence: If the prosecution’s case relies on weak or improperly obtained evidence, I fight to have it dismissed.
  • Disputing intent: I challenge claims about your intent and the prosecution’s interpretation of evidence.
  • Negotiating for reduced charges: I seek alternative sentencing options like probation or diversion programs to help avoid jail time.
  • Preparing for trial: I build defense strategies that target weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and present a compelling argument in your favor.

Facing a drug arrest can be overwhelming, but you do not have to go through it alone.
