Types of Drug Crimes We Handle & Penalties

A drug crime is an offense that involves the possession, sale, manufacturing, or distribution of illegal drugs or controlled substances. This could include anything from minor possession to large-scale distribution operations. Each drug crime is different and therefore, each offense carries different potential penalties.

The federal government and State of Texas takes drug offenses quite seriously and goes to great lengths to investigate all cases involving all drugs and controlled substances, even marijuana. You should never assume that your charges will be taken lightly or that you won't face serious penalties like prison time, large fees, probation, and community service.

The most common drug or controlled substance crimes include the following:

• Drug possession
• Possession with intent to deliver
• Drug distribution
• Drug manufacturing
• Prescription fraud
• Drug trafficking
