The state and federal governments take drug crime charges seriously. Law enforcement officials will fully investigate anyone suspected of manufacturing, possessing, or distributing controlled substances, and a prosecutor will seek maximum punishments. The penalties for state or federal drug crimes are severe and include incarceration and/or fines. A conviction can also come with a range of collateral consequences, such as eligibility for certain federal benefits and a passport. A lot is at stake when you are charged with a controlled substance offense. That is why it is necessary to have a criminal defense attorney stand up for you.

These include:
In Texas, controlled substance offenses range from Class B misdemeanors (punishable by up to 180 days in jail and/or up to $2,000 in fines) to first-degree felonies (punishable by 5 to 99 years in prison and/or up to $10,000 in fines). Federal drug crimes are also misdemeanors or felonies, with lower-level offenses penalized by no more than 1 year of imprisonment and higher-level offenses penalized by up to life imprisonment and/or up to $10,000,000 in fines.
At Peek Law Group, we conduct a full legal analysis of drug cases to identify weaknesses in proof and violations of our clients’ rights to determine a path forward.
