Skilled Defense When You're Facing Drug Charges

Minneapolis / St. Paul Drug Crimes Defense Lawyer

Call drug crimes defense attorney Ken Bottema When you’re facing serious charges for drug crimes in Minnesota, you want to work with a criminal defense lawyer with years of experience, who really knows his way around the courtroom.

Years of your life may be at stake. Contact me, Minneapolis / St. Paul criminal defense attorney Ken Bottema. I have been defending people charged with drug crimes for more than a decade. I defend people on the entire spectrum of Minnesota drug charges, including:

  • Possession of a controlled substance
  • Possession with intent to sell
  • Drug sales
  • Drug manufacturing
  • Drug trafficking

I also represent people on charges that often come along with drug charges, meth manufacturing, or marijuana growing operations, including money laundering, RICO Act, and weapons offenses.

I am an aggressive and effective courtroom defender, but more than that—I get to know my clients and I care about what happens to them. I keep current on resources available in the community and when necessary, I push for alternative sentences, treatment programs, and other options other lawyers may not explore.

Did the Police Seize Your Property?

Many people are shocked to find out that the state can take their car, their home, their cash, and their property in drug cases, even if the drugs weren’t theirs and they didn’t know they were present. And it’s easier than you think to lose your care to a DWI stop.

If your property has been seized by the police or forfeited by the state, there are ways to get it back.

Contact my criminal defense firm to learn more about how I can help you. I’ve made it a large part of my law practice to aggressively challenge state forfeiture of property and money. Few lawyers will fight the power of the state—and the government counts on that lack of action and on people’s ignorance to get away with seizing millions of dollars in assets every year.

The 4th Amendment protects us all from unreasonable searches of our person, our home, and our cars, and from seizure of our personal property. If the police have improperly executed a search warrant, unlawfully entered your property, or unreasonably detained you, you have a case against them and a chance to get your property returned.

There are a few other defense measures as well. Ask me about them by calling my office. Your initial consultation is always free.
