Rhode Island takes drug crimes very seriously. A drug conviction can have a lasting, devastating impact on an individual’s liberty and livelihood, but an experienced attorney can help. At Assalone & Associates, LLC, our criminal defense lawyer has more than 27 years of experience working with individuals throughout Rhode Island who have been charged with possessing, trafficking or selling:
- Marijuana
- Cocaine
- Crack
- Heroin
- Oxycodone
- Vicodin

Attorney Veronica Assalone has a proven track record of winning cases for her clients in both criminal law and family law. Former clients have said, “She is an exceptional lawyer with her clients’ best interests at heart,” and, “She has given me my life back.”
It is important to note that there is a big difference between a charge of possessing a drug and a charge of dealing or delivering a drug. These charges are differentiated by paraphernalia, which can include:
- A scale
- Baggies
- Money in a safe
Detailed Providence Drug Possession Lawyer
In cases involving drug charges, it is essential to determine if law enforcement followed protocol. All too often, police conduct illegal searches and seizures, and individuals unknowingly sacrifice their rights. We are determined to make sure your arrest was legal and your rights are protected. We will carefully investigate your situation and aggressively defend you as we work toward the best outcome possible.
Attorney Assalone has a very strong professional reputation within the legal community and beyond. She serves her clients with a fierce dedication to their best interests. In addition to her work as a defense lawyer, she is available to help her clients who suffer from addiction. She is well-acquainted with Rhode Island Drug Court and its rehabilitation options. Often, if an individual is willing to go through a rehabilitation program, he or she may face less severe charges.
Our senior attorney, Veronica Assalone, is proficient in Spanish, French, German, Italian and American Sign Language. Our office assistant speaks Spanish.
