Drug Possession: Alan Mendelson & Criminal Defense Attorney Barry Sands



Anybody could be arrested and it could be for something you did while driving, or after you walked out of a store, or because you had a fight with someone or you were attacked by someone, or you were near someone who had drugs in their possession or committed a crime. So, what is the first thing you should do if you do get arrested? That’s the question I put to criminal defense lawyer Barry Sands. And his answer was — say nothing and call a lawyer. Barry Sands is a well known criminal defense lawyer and a former prosecutor and he has defended many high profile celebrities when they were charged with crimes including drug possession. He has also represented motorists charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and marijuana and other drugs. Sands told me about the danger of talking with the police directly or making any kind of a statement. “They are experts trained in extracting information and do it every day. You think if you tell your story you will be set free, and this is wrong. You may tell the police the truth but they may write what they want or omit information that will help you.” Sands advises that you should choose to invoke your right to remain silent. In fact, if you tell the police you want to remain silent, this cannot be used against you later in a trial. Barry Sands offers a free consultation and he welcomes phone calls directly to his cell phone. You will not have to go through a switchboard or some phone service — you will reach him directly
