Advocate Ofir Sternberg

Criminal defense

Drug Offenses

Defense in investigations and prosecutions involving possession, trafficking, cultivation, importation, and related search and seizure issues.

Focused representation under Israeli law

The legal analysis begins with the facts, the available record, and the procedural posture. In matters involving drug offenses, early decisions may shape the evidence, the available remedies, and the course of the proceeding.

The firm represents clients before Israeli courts, investigative authorities, enforcement agencies, and other competent bodies. Advice is tailored to the individual matter; it is not based on a one-size-fits-all formula.

Representative matters

The scope of representation may include the following:

  • Possession for personal or non-personal use
  • Distribution, trafficking, and importation allegations
  • Searches of homes, vehicles, phones, and packages
  • Forfeiture, seized funds, and evidentiary challenges

How the matter is handled

A disciplined process helps preserve options and keeps the client informed at each material stage.

  • Examine the legality and scope of the search
  • Review laboratory findings, chain of custody, and quantity
  • Analyze possession, knowledge, purpose, and links among suspects
  • Build the defense around the actual evidence rather than the allegation alone

An individual legal assessment

No two cases are identical. The applicable strategy depends on the evidence, deadlines, jurisdiction, prior proceedings, and the practical effect of the dispute on the client’s life or business.
