Michigan Drug Crime Lawyer

Fighting Drug Charges in Oakland County and Wayne County, Michigan

Facing drug charges is a precarious situation to be in. You may be in danger of facing a ruined reputation, serious criminal penalties, and may lose your job. If you have been arrested for or accused of a drug crime, you will need to take immediate action and consult with a criminal defense lawyer.

A Michigan drug crime attorney who is experienced in handling these cases and has sufficient resources to counter any investigation or charges that you are facing will be able to seek avoiding a conviction on your behalf. Just because you were arrested or are a suspect in a criminal investigation does not mean that you should be convicted of a drug offense. Just because drugs were found on your property or person does not mean that you will be found guilty of drug possession or a related offense in criminal court. There are various ways that a lawyer can build an effective defense against criminal charges involving any type of controlled substance, narcotic or prescription drug. It takes an individualized and thorough approach to fully investigate the charges from every angle in order to determine the best strategy.

About Michigan Drug Charges

A defendant may face criminal charges for any of a number of particular criminal offenses all related to controlled substances, including illegal street drugs as well as prescription drugs. Under both state and Federal law, the unlawful manufacturing, distributing, cultivating, transporting, selling, possessing or trafficking of controlled substances may be punishable by imprisonment in state prison or county jail, and/or by heavy fines.

The severity of penalties that may be enforced in Michigan courts will depend on the type of drug and the amount, as well as the actual offense committed and the defendant's prior criminal record, if any. Other factors, such as weapons possession or participation in money laundering or related criminal activity may result in additional criminal charges and therefore increased penalties. If the offense occurred within a certain distance of a school, playground, church or community center, the penalties may also be increased.
