Aggressive Defense for All Michigan Drug Crimes

When you’re accused of a drug-related crime in Michigan, your freedom, reputation, and future are at stake. Drug convictions carry harsh penalties — prison time, license suspensions, heavy fines, and permanent records that can destroy careers and limit opportunities.

That’s why your first call should be to Brown & Associates Legal Services, led by Attorney Christopher Brown, a former police officer and experienced criminal defense lawyer who knows how drug investigations actually work — from both sides of the law.

Before defending clients, Christopher Brown spent years enforcing Michigan’s drug laws. He knows the tactics police use, the shortcuts they take, and the mistakes they make — knowledge that now serves as a powerful advantage for his clients.

Former Police Officer. Skilled Defense Attorney.

Christopher Brown uses his law enforcement background to reverse-engineer the prosecution’s case — exposing weaknesses, procedural violations, and investigative errors that others might miss. His experience in narcotics enforcement and criminal procedure gives him a deep understanding of:

  • How search warrants and confidential informants are used (and often misused)

  • The limits of police authority in vehicle and home searches

  • Chain-of-custody errors and evidence mishandling

  • How field test kits, lab reports, and informant statements can be challenged in court

When law enforcement crosses the line, Brown & Associates holds them accountable.

Understanding Michigan Drug Charges

In Michigan, drug crimes are punished according to three main factors:

  1. The Type of Drug:
    Schedule I and II substances such as heroin, cocaine, and methamphetamine carry the harshest penalties. Even small amounts can lead to felony convictions and long-term imprisonment.

  2. The Quantity:
    Larger amounts of controlled substances increase the severity of the charge. For example, possessing a few grams of cocaine might mean a 4-year felony, while possession of 1,000 grams could mean life in prison.

  3. The Intent or Conduct:
    Michigan law distinguishes between use, possession, possession with intent to deliver, delivery (sale), and manufacture.

    • Use: Often charged as a misdemeanor.

    • Possession: A felony that can bring years in prison.

    • Intent to Deliver / Trafficking / Manufacture: The most serious level, carrying penalties up to 20 years or more, depending on the substance and amount.

The Stakes Are High — Experience Matters

Even a minor possession charge can result in jail, loss of driving privileges, denial of housing, or rejection from jobs. A felony drug conviction can permanently alter your life.

That’s why you need an attorney who’s been on both sides of the badge — someone who knows what police are trained to look for and how to expose their mistakes. Christopher Brown’s law enforcement background gives him a tactical edge in negotiating dismissals, suppressing evidence, and winning acquittals at trial.

Drug Crimes We Defend

Brown & Associates Legal Services represents clients across Michigan facing:

  • Possession or Possession with Intent to Deliver

  • Drug Manufacturing or Cultivation

  • Narcotics Trafficking and Distribution

  • Prescription Drug Offenses

  • Cocaine, Heroin, and Methamphetamine Crimes

  • Marijuana Possession and Delivery

  • Federal Drug Charges and Conspiracy Cases

  • Pre-File Investigations and Search Warrant Challenges

Whether you’re accused of having a small amount for personal use or a large-scale trafficking offense, we fight to protect your rights and your future.

Exposing Police and Prosecutorial Missteps

As a former officer, Christopher Brown understands how cases are built — and how they fall apart. His defense strategies often focus on uncovering:

  • Illegal searches or warrant defects

  • Improper use of confidential informants

  • False or exaggerated police reports

  • Laboratory testing errors and chain-of-custody gaps

  • Constitutional violations during questioning or arrest

By pinpointing and challenging these weaknesses, we can suppress evidence, negotiate reduced charges, or achieve full dismissal.

Taking Control Early

If you’re under investigation, don’t wait for an arrest. Early representation can help prevent charges, control the narrative, and protect your rights before law enforcement builds its case.
Christopher Brown’s firm routinely intervenes at the investigative stage — contacting detectives, managing communications, and sometimes stopping charges before they’re ever filed.

If you’ve already been charged, we’ll move quickly to challenge evidence, negotiate alternatives, and prepare for trial with the precision and insight that comes from real-world police experience.

Protect Your Record. Protect Your Future.

A drug conviction doesn’t have to define your life. With the right strategy and an attorney who knows both sides of the system, you can fight back and move forward.
