Why You Need a Drug Attorney That Knows Both Sides of the Law

The most common mistake a person can make if being arrested for a drug crime is to Talk.
If you are being questioned about your arrest…

DO NOT SAY A WORD!

Exercise your 5th Amendment right and request to speak to your attorney immediately.

When people are questioned by cops, they tend to start blindly answering every question as if they were a 5-year-old being questioned by an adult. The reason being that adrenaline is being dumped into your body causing a “fight-or-flight” response and causing you to not think clearly.

The reasons for not talking and getting in touch with a lawyer first is because drug crime convictions can be harsh and law enforcement can and may attempt to have you charged with harsher penalties that you may not deserve.

Below we’ll go over some of the tactics used by them.

What Should You Know About Drug Crimes?

  • Even if you’re not selling drugs and are just in possession of them, you may be convicted of “Drug Trafficking”.
  • If it can be proven that you were buying, selling or delivering drugs near public places such as parks, daycares, schools or churches the sentence will be even worse. This can add over a decade to your sentence and tens of thousands of dollars in fines.
  • If it is not your first time being convicted of a drug crime, the sentence could increase.
  • Federal charges can be a lot worse than state. Contact a drug lawyer right now if your charges are in a federal court.
  • Your home, vehicle and other belongings may be taken away if it is suspected that they were part of your drug business.
  • If you are found to have been doing the drug work for a gang or criminal organization your sentence can be even worse.
