Get Tough Defense for Your Drug Charges in Pasadena

A drug offense can be as simple as possession of marijuana without a doctor's recommendation or as complex and consequential as federal conspiracy to sell methamphetamine, which is punishable with a mandatory minimum 10-year sentence.

When you retain our Pasadena drug crime attorneys, we get to work:

  • Petitioning for your attendance at a rehabilitation program that could lead to a dismissal of the charges filed against you
  • Thoroughly reviewing the facts of your case to determine the best course of action to take
  • Crafting a creative defense or resolution, no matter your charges 

When you hire our criminal defense firm in Pasadena, you can be sure that your case is in experienced and capable hands. Whether you have been charged with a misdemeanor or felony offense, contact our office now to consult with a drug crime lawyer near you.

    - Vincent
    He was honest with me from the start
    “I was frightened and distrustful when I walked into Steve Escovar’s office in December of 2016. The possible consequences to my situation were devastatingly life-altering, and I was worried, to say the least. I had read good reviews on Mr. Escovar’s abilities and results, but I was still skeptical. He was honest with me from the start. He didn’t downplay the significance of what I faced, but he reassured me that if I followed his advice; by presenting him with documents he requested, he would do his job, and the outcome might be better than what I imagined. He was calm and supportive while I fretted. Most importantly, he got the best results I could never have imagined anyone could achieve. He got my case dismissed. He knew I was innocent and somehow was able to make the D.A. realize it too. Steve is a fighter, and he was willing to go all the way for me. He likes to win, and the results speak for themselves. If you’re ever in a situation where your future is at stake, I highly recommend you call Steve. Believe him. Do your part, and he will do his. He’s a professional, he knows his stuff, and I can’t thank him enough for giving me my future back. I don’t plan on having any more situations like this in my life, but if I do, I’d hire him in a nanosecond. Great Attorney. An honest man with integrity.”

    Steve Escovar is without a doubt the best lawyer and professional in the business.
    “Steve Escovar is without a doubt the best lawyer and professional in the business. His professionalism and ability to persuade the courtroom to follow his leadership is amazing to watch. He won both difficult and almost impossible cases for my wife to vacate two prior convictions in a courtroom known for its strict conservative position. I would recommend Steve to anyone and any family member.”
    - Pleased Client

In addition, he and his office were very organized and it truly felt like he cared. I would highly recommend Steve Escovar for anyone that finds themselves in need of an attorney. We are going to continue to use him with this ongoing matter.”
