Lowell and Chelmsford Criminal Defense Attorneys Achieve Dismissal of Drug Trafficking Charges

Jurisdiction: Lowell District Court; Middlesex Superior Court

Date: August 2, 2024

Erkan & Sullivan, P.C. recently secured a significant victory for a client facing severe drug trafficking charges from two separate cases, enabling him to avoid mandatory prison time and deportation. The client’s previous lawyer had advised him to flee, but he came to Erkan & Sullivan, P.C. with the hope of dismissing these cases to continue supporting his family.

Case Background:

  • 2009 Case (Lowell): The client was charged with trafficking cocaine. The case was dismissed after Erkan & Sullivan, P.C. uncovered evidence suggesting that a corrupt state lab employee might have tampered with the evidence.
  • 2010 Case (Chelmsford): The client faced charges of distribution of heroin and distribution of cocaine. This case was dismissed after the prosecutor agreed that the client’s compelling background warranted a second chance.
  1. Drug Trafficking Charges: The client was accused of serious drug offenses, which could have led to long prison sentences and deportation.
  2. Corrupt Evidence: In the 2009 case, the challenge was to prove that the evidence was compromised due to tampering by a state lab employee.
  3. Compelling Background: For the 2010 case, the challenge was to present the client’s background and current circumstances compellingly to the prosecutor.

Outcome: Erkan & Sullivan, P.C. successfully argued for the dismissal of both cases:

  • 2009 Case Dismissal (Lowell): Through diligent investigation, the firm demonstrated that the evidence could not be trusted, leading to the dismissal of the cocaine trafficking charges.
  • 2010 Case Dismissal (Chelmsford): By highlighting the client’s rehabilitation and positive contributions to society, the firm convinced the prosecutor to dismiss the charges, allowing the client to remain with his family in the United States.
