Whether you have already been arrested or charged, or believe you are the target of a state or federal drug investigation, seeking legal representation early can be critical to protecting your rights and preparing your defense.
Drug cases often depend heavily on how law enforcement obtained the evidence being used against you. Traffic stops, vehicle searches, searches of homes or other property, warrants, surveillance, wiretaps, and other investigative methods can all raise important constitutional and evidentiary issues.
Attorney Phil Haddad carefully examines the circumstances surrounding the investigation and arrest, including whether law enforcement had lawful grounds for a stop or search and whether evidence was properly obtained. He also evaluates issues involving possession and knowledge, allegations of intent to deliver, laboratory testing, chain of custody, and other potential weaknesses in the prosecution’s case.
When appropriate, Phil challenges unlawfully obtained evidence and other constitutional violations through pretrial motions. Whether negotiating with prosecutors or preparing a case for trial, every decision is made with the goal of protecting your rights and pursuing the best possible outcome.

Phil by far is a man of his word as it pertains to his profession! I had an incident in Downtown Chicago with the law; where I was facing a class III Felony. The moment Phil got the call from my family, he tackled the job right away! From our initial interview to the very last court date, He never stopped working on my case. He & I both knew I innocent in the matter and he didn’t stop working until he provided the facts and evidence to show the Judge alongside the District Attorney that I was not a criminal who should be trialed. Elated to say: I am now a free man. I highly recommend reaching out if in trouble!
