Drug Offenses

The Cochran Firm

A drug crime or drug offense is an illegal act that involves narcotics like marijuana, crack cocaine, methamphetamines, LSD or unlawful prescriptions.  Like all criminal offenses, drug crimes range in severity and can lead to life altering legal repercussions for people that are convicted.

Serious Drug Offenses

There are numerous types of drug offenses that are committed on an annual basis in Texas.  However, the most commonly committed drug crimes include, but are not limited to:  drug possession, drug possession for sale, drug manufacturing, drug cultivation, drug distribution, possession of drug paraphernalia, prescription fraud and drug trafficking.

Many of the drug offenses mentioned above are considered serious criminal offenses in Dallas.  However, classification of drug crimes usually depends upon the type of drug, the amount of drug in a person’s possession, the person’s criminal history and whether or not the drug offense involved the selling of narcotics.

Those who have been charged with drug offenses, whether a misdemeanor or serious felony, need to start thinking about how they will defend themselves against allegations.  The truth is, if a person is convicted of a felony drug offense, he/she will most likely have to serve time in jail.  The only way to effectively fight drug offense charges is by working with a capable drug crime defense lawyer, such as the lawyers at The Cochran Firm.
