If you have been arrested on drug charges, obviously you need a lawyer to handle your case and answer questions about a trial and witnesses. Your lawyer will know how to gather evidence and call witnesses.

Probably NOT. The police located drugs on you. Your defense is he/she planted drugs on you. Therefore, you must find, subpoena and call as a witness the person you claim planted drugs on you. I assume the drugs were planted on you, and you absolutely nothing about them, and have never been arrested for drugs before. Good luck. See website for other info: www.lawrencelewispc.com

Since you are facing prison for a serious charge, obviously you already have hired a lawyer. Your lawyer is the one who should be answering questions about strategy. And since it would be very hard to convince a jury as to your story, be sure you are completely honest with your lawyer.
