SKILLED ATTORNEY IN FORT WORTH HELPING THOSE ACCUSED OF DRUG CRIMES

A drug crimes attorney gives the accused the chance to have charges reduced or dropped. We can help you understand the depth of any accusation, but as a quick guide, refer to the following list:

Drug possession

Conviction occurs if the government proves that you held an illegal drug under your care.
Minimum charges include fines of up to $10,000 and confinement in jail for up to two years.

Drug possession with intent to distribute

This charge can be proven if numerous individual packages are found or if a list of buyers is uncovered.
At a minimum, fines can reach $250,000, and charges can include imprisonment for up to three years.

Drug smuggling

Smuggling involves bringing controlled substances across state or federal lines.
Federal fines for transporting illegal substances are up to $250,000 and can include up to 20 years of jail time.

Drug trafficking

The movement of a controlled substance into the state for distribution is known as drug trafficking.
Penalties vary based on the amount of the substance. For example, a kilogram or more of heroin can result in large fines and the possibility of incarceration.

If your medical clinic or pharmaceutical business is being federally investigated, you likely need a DEA attorney. I may be able to help you keep your license to practice despite an impending audit.
