Schaumburg Cocaine Distribution Attorney

Cook County Heroin Distribution Defense Lawyer

Cocaine and heroin are some of the most dangerous recreational drugs. Because they are so commonly used, people do not consider the damaging effects the drugs have on themselves and their families until it is too late. Unfortunately, by this time, the user may be facing felony drug distribution or possession charges that can significantly damage his or her personal and professional future.

At Glasgow & Olsson, in Schaumburg, Illinois, we represent people of all ages who have been charged with possession or drug distribution of cocaine, heroin and other street drugs. We provide aggressive representation that helps protect our clients’ rights, freedom and futures.

Contact an attorney at our firm today to schedule a free consultation. We take immediate action against serious drug crimes.

Possessing more than 5 grams of coke or heroin can be classified as a class 1 non probational felony that can result in 4-15 years in prison and several thousands of dollars in fines. Even possessing less than 5 grams is a felony with serious felony penalties ranging from 1-7 years in the penitentiary. These charges and consequences often lead to social implications such as loss of job and a damaged reputation.

However, if handled correctly, some drug crimes can go through the legal system with little impact to the accused. If you, your child or another loved one was accused of ingesting or distributing drugs, we may be able to dismiss the charge or minimize the consequences. If this was a first offense, we may file for expungement if the statutory period has ended and there were no other charges filed.

Violation of Rights

Many drug distribution cases involve a violation of 4th Amendment search and seizure rights. A person may be in his or her car or house when a police officer stops him or her and charges them with possession. An illegal search of the car or house may turn up a significant quantity of drugs. Our defense attorneys will file motions to dismiss any evidence that was obtained by violating our clients’ rights. If successful, this can result in dismissal of the criminal charges.

A Note to Parents

Street drugs are too easily accessible in today’s world. Heroin is particularly dangerous because users do not fully understand the dangers of using the drug even just one time. If your son or daughter has been charged with possession, trafficking or drug distribution, please get them quality legal representation to protect their liberty and their future. Helping your child now can save his or her life.

If you need help with a DUI case he is the person to call!!

In March of this year I was pulled over and arrested for DUI. I felt that is was unfair seeing I was just being honest with the officer. He pulled me over for speeding around 11:00 PM and asked where I was coming from and I told him. He then asked if I had been drinking and I informed his yes. I gave him the rest of the details and he had me do the field tests that he felt I failed. When he got me to the station and had me blow into the machine it was a .080 on the money.

I new that I would need an attorney and was referred to Thomas Glasgow. He interviewed me and gave me the plan of attack no guarantees but he felt confident. His firm handled my case with professionalism far above the norm in the industry. His staff (Yolanda Rosas and Danielle Cary) is top notch and treats you like family. Mr. Glasgow recommended that I have an Expert witness help on our case. His name was DR. Hensen and he helped clarify the machines limitations. This was one of the key factors of my case.

So after five months of court dates I was found NOT GUILTY by the judge. I’m convinced this was do the efforts of Thomas Glasgow and his team of professionals.

Has Done Miracles

Tom has been there for my family for somewhere around 4 to 5 years now as our lawyer. He has helped my family legally multiple times and from what a can tell has done miracles. I respect him and his knowledge more than I can say and trust him for that. The best thing I can say about Thomas Glasgow is that he is the kind of lawyer that truly cares about his clients and what’s best for them. I have personally seen him go above and beyond multiple times than what he even remotely had to. He is extremely prompt responding to you and is very efficient with his cases. He also has a heart of gold but is blunt with you on what to expect and how outcomes truly look. He’s not just another lawyer looking to make as much money as possible. He puts his clients best interest ahead of anything else.

I Could Not Recommend a More Caring and Competent Attorney

I could not recommend a more caring and competent attorney. I had the experience of using Mr. Glasgow for three separate matters, and he was superb on all of them.

Honest & Compassionate

This review is for both Mr. Glasgow and Ms. Olsson. Mr. Glasgow met with me prompty and took the time to explain everything, even addressing my worries about costs and advised how to effectively use my retainer without charging me for that first meeting. They were both there for me as my divorce took an emotional turn and provided the best guidance within the bounds of the law. Both attorneys are not only honest professionals but also compassionate individuals who made a challenging process more manageable.

The Best Professional In The Area

I cannot begin to describe just how helpful Thomas Glasgow and his team was. He met with me 1 day after contacting him regarding my case. He was direct and honest with his expectations from me as a client and took care of the rest. His responsiveness to all my questions was quick and diligent. I felt as though I had hired the best professional in the area. His presence is felt in every room he walks into and his results are that of a true expert in the field. Thank you for everything.
