Strategic Drug Crime Defense and Evidence Suppression

State and federal drug charges carry harsh consequences that require aggressive constitutional defense. Kohn and Yager represents clients charged with possession, possession with intent to distribute, and narcotics trafficking involving marijuana, cocaine, prescription painkillers, and synthetic substances. By identifying illegal vehicle stops, improper searches, and invalid search warrants, their defense lawyers frequently win suppression motions that prevent illegally obtained evidence from reaching trial.

A conviction for a severe traffic infraction can lead to license suspension, devastating insurance increases, and points under Georgia law. The firm's traffic ticket lawyers defend motorists against reckless driving, super speeder penalties, fleeing or attempting to elude police, hit and run, and driving on a suspended license, preserving driving privileges whenever possible.
