New York City Drug Crime Defense by Former High-Level Prosecutors
If you or a loved one has been arrested for a drug crime such as possession, sale or trafficking in New York, you probably don't need anyone to tell you the consequences could be serious and life-changing. The future may turn on your decision to contact a dedicated, resourceful defense lawyer who will put decades of relevant experience to work for you.
At Goldberg & Allen, LLP, based in Manhattan and serving clients throughout the five boroughs, you will find two attorneys who reached the level of First Deputy Bureau Chief in the Kings County D.A.'s office. Partner Jay K. Goldberg held this position in the Major Narcotics Investigation Bureau — setting policy, training prosecutors and police, and approving search warrants. We understand the complexities of drug cases and know how to attack them — as our track record shows.
Deep Experience Across a Full Range of Drug Charges
Both Mr. Goldberg and attorney Gerald Allen are proven trial lawyers and skilled negotiators. Our experience in local, state and federal courts extends to:
- Drug crimes ranging from marijuana possession to trafficking in many kilos of cocaine
- Offenses involving a full range of other controlled substances, such as heroin, methamphetamine, Ecstasy, and prescription drugs like OxyContin and Valium
- Complex drug crimes cases also involving weapons charges or other allegations
Adept at Exposing Problems with the Prosecution's Case
Were your rights violated when your vehicle was stopped, or when authorities entered your home?

We are knowledgeable in bringing motions for dismissal of charges — ultimately saving clients the cost and risk of a trial.
We listen to our clients and rigorously investigate all means of defense. Whether you ultimately decide that negotiating for reduced consequences or taking your case all the way through trial is the best approach, you can count on a determined effort in your best interests.
A drug conviction can land you in prison and rob you — or someone you care about — of hope and future opportunities. To discuss your defense free with an attorney who has trained New York City prosecutors and police, please contact our firm now.
