Drug crimes are often the result of an addiction or longtime substance abuse. Attorney Sullivan recognizes that in most instances, jail is not the answer to the problem, but instead makes matters worse. If a dismissal of your case is not possible, he will argue for alternatives that involve treatment, rather than punishment.

Recently police and prosecutors in Massachusetts have been increasing efforts to bring charges of drug distribution – especially heroin and fentanyl. Having an attorney who has experience trying drug cases and handling motions to suppress is a must if you are going to achieve the best possible result. Attorney Sullivan is an experienced Lowell drug crime defense lawyer who regularly handles drug cases in Lowell, Lawrence, Ayer, Middlesex Superior, and Lowell Superior Courts.
