Drug Sales & Distribution

Tustin, California Drug Crimes Defense Attorney

Every time the state legislature meets, penalties for drug crimes become more severe. If you are facing already serious charges for drug sales or distribution, you know that a criminal conviction could mean prison time.

When your freedom is at stake, work with a lawyer who has years of experience and a track record of success with felony drug crime cases. Contact the Law Office of Barney B. Gibbs. I am available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, and I can meet you in jail.

I'm attorney Barney Gibbs. I've been defending people on drug sales and drug distribution charges for more than 25 years. Put my years of experience to work for you. My goal is to protect your rights and to ensure you get the best possible result, given the facts of your case.

Thorough and Aggressive Defense

Drug cases are tough. There can be real advantages to working with an experienced attorney, especially one who's been living and working in the same community for years.

• I have handled hundreds of cases involving distribution and drug trafficking charges in Orange County criminal courts. I know the judges and prosecutors in this county and how they charge and negotiate pleas in drug cases.
• I know how the local police investigate cases. I'm aware of the kinds of mistakes that get made. I investigate the case for my clients and work with a private investigator if that's what we need to get evidence in your defense.

Experienced Orange County Defense

My goal is always to get you the best possible result for your circumstances, whether you're charged with crack cocaine drug sales or possession of a large amount of marijuana or meth (methamphetamines). The first step is to get you out of jail and keep you out of jail for as long as possible. I'll help you make bail or get out of jail on your own recognizance.

If I think your case can be won-if there are problems with search and seizure or police procedures or lack of evidence-I will ask to have the charges dismissed or will take your case to court.

If the evidence is such that I think the case can't be won, I'll negotiate for reduced charges or an alternative sentence such as drug court, Prop 36 drug diversion, or residential treatment. There may also be the option of a private jail rather than a county jail.

Expect a Strong Defense

As a solo practitioner, I deal directly with my clients. I will give you an honest assessment of your case and will work with you every step of the way. I am always available to answer your questions personally. Contact me for a free initial consultation.
