Salisbury Drug Crimes Lawyer

As Former Prosecutors, We Know Drug Charges. Call (410) 348-7809.

If you have been arrested on drug charges, you need to know the answers to some critical questions. Did the police follow the law in investigating your case? Does the prosecutor have solid evidence against you? If someone informed against you, is that person credible?

An experienced Salisbury drug crime attorney can get answers to those questions. At the MacDonald Law Office, LLC, we know how to get those answers because we dealt with these issues every day as former Wicomico County prosecutors. We saw the mistakes police and prosecutors made, so we know the opportunities that exist for defendants.


Whether at our Salisbury or Ocean City office, we're ready to discuss what we can do to defend you against drug charges and potentially help you avoid jail, fines, and a criminal record.


Types of Drug Offenses

We defend clients against a wide range of drug charges in Maryland involving illegal drugs such as cocaine or marijuana, as well as prescription drugs such as Vicodin and OxyContin.

Common charges that our attorneys handle include:

What Are the Penalties for Drug Crimes?

Conviction on any of these charges can have significant long-term consequences. Jail time may or may not be involved, but either way, the charge will end up on your criminal record, potentially affecting your future employment.

If you do not have a past conviction on a drug charge, you may be eligible for probation before judgment, which keeps a conviction off your record if you comply with the terms of the probation. We can help you decide whether this is the right option for you. We can also help you with the expungement of your record, if you qualify.

Addressing Police Misconduct in Searches & Seizures

One major issue in many drug cases is the search and seizure methods followed by the police. If a search was conducted unlawfully, the evidence produced by that search can generally be suppressed. For instance, seizures of drugs from cars during unlawful traffic stops — such as stops motivated by illegal profiling — can often be suppressed. We serve clients throughout Ocean City, Berlin, and the surrounding areas.

Maryland Drug Crime FAQ

How can a Salisbury drug crime attorney help with addressing police misconduct in searches and seizures?

An experienced attorney can evaluate the methods used by the police in conducting searches and seizures related to your case. If the search was conducted unlawfully, the evidence produced by that search can potentially be suppressed. This is a critical area where legal representation can make a difference in the outcome of your case.

Can I be charged with driving under the influence (DUI) of drugs in Maryland?

Yes, Maryland has laws prohibiting driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) in addition to alcohol. If law enforcement suspects you of driving while impaired by drugs, you may be subject to a DUI arrest and face similar penalties as alcohol-related DUI offenses.

What should I do if I'm facing drug-related charges in Maryland?

If you're facing drug-related charges in Maryland, it's crucial to seek legal representation from an experienced criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. A skilled lawyer can review the details of your case, explain your legal options, and work to build a strong defense strategy on your behalf.

Can I have my drug-related conviction expunged from my record in Maryland?

Maryland law allows for certain drug-related convictions to be expunged from an individual's criminal record under specific circumstances. Eligibility requirements and the expungement process can vary depending on the nature of the offense and other factors.

What should I do if I believe my rights were violated during a drug-related arrest or investigation in Maryland?

If you believe your rights were violated during a drug-related arrest or investigation in Maryland, it's essential to discuss your concerns with a knowledgeable criminal defense attorney. They can evaluate the circumstances of your case and advise you on the appropriate steps to take to protect your rights and defend against any charges
