Understanding drug possession allegations
Drug possession offences depend on the substance, the applicable law, and the circumstances. A possession allegation requires more analysis than simply identifying where an item was located. The specific charge and disclosure guide the defence review.
Preparing your drug possession defence consultation
Use the documents for your own matter to guide the discussion. Depending on the circumstances, Karandeep can review:
- The alleged connection between the accused and the substance
- Laboratory identification and continuity of the seized material
- The grounds for any search, detention, or warrant
- Whether police respected applicable constitutional protections
What to do before you contact us
Keep all police paperwork and write down the timeline for your lawyer. Preserve relevant records. If your paperwork alleges an offence beyond possession, contact the office to confirm how we can assist.
Organising an Orangeville representation enquiry
For an Orangeville enquiry, prepare a short chronology of the paperwork you have received and the appearances that have already taken place. Keep original documents separate from your notes. If another lawyer has worked on the matter, explain that when discussing the proposed scope of representation.
Court attendance in Orangeville, if required by your documents, and a consultation at our Brampton office are separate arrangements. Confirm the location and purpose of each appointment. Ask how the office will communicate a new date or a request for additional records after your consultation.
Orangeville court details to check before travelling
The Orangeville (County of Dufferin) Courthouse is listed at 10 Louisa Street. If that is the court on your documents, use its official page to check contact and attendance information before the date. Your consultation with Stratton Law is arranged separately through Brampton.
Orangeville courthouse information
Follow the instructions for your particular proceeding. A published video link does not mean you may attend remotely when an in-person appearance is required. If the location or attendance method is unclear, confirm it with your lawyer or the court.

Does finding drugs in a shared car settle the case?
No. The legal and factual connection between an accused person and the substance requires examination. We review the full evidence rather than making assumptions from location alone.
