Dziedziak & Marcus - Drug Importation - Extradition - Conspiracy Charges

If you have been charged on state or federal drug trafficking and conspiracy charges, you need the benefit of a seasoned drug defense attorney on your side.

Attorney James Marcus of the Chicago criminal law firm of Dziedziak & Marcus has the experience and drug trafficking background to effectively represent clients in Illinois, Florida, Nevada, and elsewhere throughout the country. He knows that felony drug trafficking crimes can vary widely from case to case. His background as a former Justice department honors program attorney and Special Prosecutor investigating and prosecuting major drug operations from Miami to Thailand provide him insight into the complex world of drug trafficking organizations.
