Drug Sales, Trafficking & Smuggling Offenses In Boise
Why You Need A Drug Defense Attorney
Drug laws are strict and complex, and they are enforced by a range of zealous and aggressive authorities. It is not uncommon for people who have drugs – such as marijuana or cocaine – for personal use or sharing among friends, to be arrested and charged with intent to deliver or drug trafficking. A conviction on felony charges like these can carry years in prison, huge fines and other extremely harsh consequences.
If you are facing drug charges in the Boise, Caldwell, Nampa or elsewhere in Idaho, please contact our drug crimes defense attorneys at Bublitz Law, P.C. Our firm offers honest, productive counsel, beginning with a consultation, as well as aggressive defense against charges ranging from drug possession to federal trafficking or manufacturing.

Drug Sale & Trafficking Convictions Result in Long Prison Sentences
Please take your situation seriously and move quickly. In Idaho, being caught with more than 28 grams of cocaine, for example, brings a drug trafficking charge regardless of whether any sales or intent to sell can be proven. Penalties for a conviction start with a mandatory three-year prison term.
Many people are shocked at the sentences they can receive for having what they consider a modest amount of marijuana, methamphetamine or of a prescription drug like Vicodin or OxyContin. With potential penalties so severe and life changing, it is essential to work with a defense lawyer who is determined to fight for you.
We can examine and pursue issues in your case, such as:
- The legality of your traffic stop or any potentially illegal search and seizure that led to your arrest
- Other law enforcement irregularities or oversteps that may lead to a motion to suppress evidence against you
- All opportunities to negotiate reduced consequences such as withheld judgment as well as proactive steps we can take to negotiate for leniency if the case against you is strong
Case Example - 2008: United States v. Almarez: Federal Drug Trafficking, and Conspiracy to Traffic in Methamphetamine
The Federal Government conducted a methamphetamine sting operation for approximately six months. A total of 17 individuals were arrested, but only one man walked away. Our attorney's client was implicated by a DEA Agent for setting up a controlled buy. Attorney Bublitz's client claimed it wasn't him on the day in question. We had the audio sent to a voice recognition expert out of Virginia and ultimately got the United States of America to dismiss the charge for lack of evidence.
