"If you've been busted for steroid possession
-- and you're smart --
you call the Long Island offices of Rick Collins."
-- Eric Dexheimer, Denver Westword

Rick Collins has a national legal practice catering to clients in the health and fitness community. He is the nation's foremost legal authority on anabolic steroids and muscle-building drugs and supplements -- the one and only, original "steroid lawyer" and creator of www.steroidlaw.com. He handles sports doping cases involving both amateur and professional athletes, and concentrates much of his time on the defense against steroid possession, importation or sale prosecutions brought in state or federal criminal courts. He defends clients in a variety of "alternative" drug cases involving sports drugs, misbranded dietary supplements, and counterfeit prescription medicines. He travels from coast to coast in defense of his clients.

If you've been arrested for a steroid case in America, or if you've tested positive for steroids as a "doping" violation, hire a lawyer who knows all about steroid cases. A knowledgeable and experienced defense attorney is essential to obtaining the best possible result in any criminal or administrative matter. Few state or local police, federal agents, prosecutors, judges or defense attorneys are educated about the substances themselves or the fine points of the laws. It's not uncommon for offense laws and sentencing guidelines to be misapplied. Moreover, the endless misinformation and propaganda reported in the mainstream press about steroids and their adverse effects has severely biased the beliefs of those in the criminal justice system. A prosecutor whose knowledge of anabolic steroids is based on what has been printed in the lay press may be inclined to offer an inappropriately severe plea, or a judge may be inclined to impose an unduly harsh sentence. Rick Collins and his law partners are committed to defending those who are prosecuted for substances related to building muscle. CMG partners are admitted to practice in the New York, Maryland, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Texas State courts, the District of Columbia, the Federal Courts of the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York, the Western District of Texas, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the Court of Appeals for the Armed Services and the United States Supreme Court. Rick Collins and his team of "legal muscle" will promptly respond to questions from anyone being investigated for or charged with a crime related to anabolic steroids. Where appropriate, a referral will be made to qualified counsel in another jurisdiction to assist in the matter.
