Understanding Drug Possession Charges And Their Impacts On Your Life
In both North Carolina and on a federal level, drug possession charges can vary significantly based on the type and amount of drugs involved. Even small amounts of illegal drugs can lead to serious charges, potentially resulting in significant penalties. Possession of unauthorized prescription medications also carries severe consequences.
The penalties for drug possession can be severe, especially if you face federal drug charges. A conviction can lead to a lasting criminal record, substantial fines and extensive prison time. This is why it is crucial to have an experienced criminal defense lawyer by your side.
Our attorneys can protect your rights and work toward the best possible outcome for first time and multiple time offenders.
Do First-Time Drug Offenders Go To Jail?
In North Carolina, not all first-time drug offenders go to jail, but the risk exists, especially for higher schedule drugs or larger quantities. Working with a skilled attorney can significantly increase the chances of a more favorable outcome, such as reduced charges or alternative sentencing like rehabilitation programs instead of jail time.
How Do Attorneys Defend Against Drug Possession Charges?
Our drug possession lawyers are adept at utilizing a range of defenses, from challenging the alleged facts and the legality of the law enforcement’s search and seizure to proving the drugs belonged to someone else. Each case is unique, and our attorneys are committed to crafting a defense that is tailored to your specific situation, whether your case involves possession of marijuana, meth, cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, or prescription drugs.
