Bringing Broad Experience to Bear on Your Case
Texas and federal criminal statutes impose strict punishments on people convicted of the misuse of controlled substances. There are many specific charges that can be used to ensnare people accused of drug offenses. Our attorneys defend people charged with drug crimes including:
- Possession
- Selling and distribution
- Trafficking
- Smuggling and importation
- Manufacturing
- Prescription fraud
- Pseudoephedrine (Sudafed®) violations
- Drug conspiracy charges
- Continuing criminal enterprise (CCE) charges
- Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) charges
There are different laws governing each specific illegal and prescription drug. We have extensive experience dealing with cases involving a wide variety of drugs, including cocaine, marijuana, amphetamines, methamphetamine, heroin, Ecstasy and OxyContin®.
Scrutinizing the Prosecutor's Evidence
In drug crime cases, the government may use improper methods to collect its evidence. We are experienced at probing into search and seizure issues when K9 units and border searches are involved. We also investigate the credibility of informants (snitches), who often have motives to comply with the prosecutor's version of the facts.
When you need a lawyer with the experience to identify every possible opportunity to avoid conviction or reduce penalties on a drug crime charge, contact us.
