A New Orleans drug crime defense attorney from The Tonry Law Firm can act fast for your defense, whether you are facing misdemeanor or felony drug charges. There are various defense strategies that could be implemented, and you should have your case evaluated immediately. In some cases, significant doubt can be raised as to whether the drugs in questions were in fact yours.
