SURPRISED BY YOUR DRUG CRIME CHARGE?
It is commonly understood that marijuana, heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine and other illicit drugs are classified as controlled substances in the criminal justice system. Not everyone knows, however, that you do not have to be in possession of a controlled substance to be charged with a drug crime. Even possession of drug paraphernalia or the components to manufacture drugs can also result in a criminal charge. Even prescription medication can lead to trouble if you do not personally have a prescription for the amount in your possession.
DON’T HESITATE TO TALK TO AN ATTORNEY
Remember that law enforcement and prosecutors are not truly interested in making deals with you. They are interested in gathering information to incriminate you. You will give yourself a better opportunity for strong defense if you retain counsel early in your case. If you think you may be under investigation, I can promptly step in to advise you of your rights and develop a legal strategy that mitigates the criminal consequences ahead.
