Drug offenses are taken very seriously and can be charged and prosecuted under either Federal or State law, and sometimes even both when the offense violates both a state and a federal law. It is important to know that State and Federal laws are increasingly providing for tough prosecution on drug trafficking, drug possession and other drug related offenses and the criminal penalties are becoming more severe. Even minor drug charges can carry serious penalties upon conviction and have an impact over your personal, family and professional life.

Drug Offenses in Florida - Defense and Legal Consequences

Penalties for drug-related crimes can greatly vary depending on previous convictions and on the offense level of the current crime. If this is your first offense, you may be eligible for different programs making your charges being dropped by the state or dismissed by the court. Otherwise, penalties can include anything from probation, attending a drug treatment program, or mandatory jail time. Jail time can be anywhere between few months to life in prison. Sometimes the State can even pursue the death penalty if the offender intentionally kills another person during the course of a drug enterprise.

Even if the police finds drugs directly in a person's possession, the drugs and other evidence could be suppressed (thrown away) if the police did not follow the proper procedures required under the U.S. Constitution. One of the first things our lawyers look for when defending someone accused of a drug offense is whether the police themselves acted in an illegal manner.

We handle all types of drug-related offenses, from the less severe, like simple possession of a small amount of certain drugs, to the more serious ones, such as participating in an organized drug trafficking business with sale, distribution and manufacturing activities. We also defend charges involving controlled substances, such as, marijuana, crack, paraphernalia, cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, methamphetamines (meth), hallucinogens, and Rohypnol club drugs.

As experienced lawyers in criminal law, at both Federal and State level, and having previous prosecutors within our law office, we know the approaches followed by State and Federal prosecutors on these type of cases. We use this knowledge to our client’s advantage while defending their cases to get the best possible outcome on their behalf.
