Lawrenceville Drug Crimes Attorney

Gwinnett County, Georgia Criminal Defense Lawyer

Drug crimes and drug-related offenses can carry heavy penalties for the convicted. Whether you have been arrested or are under investigation for drug possession, distribution or trafficking, you will need a skilled and aggressive attorney on your side who can defend your rights both in and out of court.

Penalties for a drug offense may range from a "slap on the wrist" sentence of drug rehabilitation or counseling to many years in a Georgia state prison. These penalties are based upon the type of drug and the amount, as well as the intention of the accused. For instance, possession is a lesser charge than distribution or trafficking, and selling marijuana is a lesser charge than selling heroin. Additionally, some drug crimes are actually federal offenses and will involve the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) or the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), both federal agencies that will exercise no leniency in prosecuting your case.

No matter the charges you face, you will need to consult a defense lawyer as soon as possible, in order to have the best chance of reaching a positive outcome for your case.
