Representing the Voice of the Injured

Why You Absolutely Need a Dangerous Drugs Lawyer

Mistakes are made. People are not perfect, and it can be easy to find yourself in the wrong crowd doing the wrong things at the wrong time. However, the actions you take after you have been charged is truly what sets you apart and what can get you on the path to a brighter future.

With this said, it is vital that you work with a qualified and respectable dangerous drugs lawyer when receiving a dangerous drugs charge. Doing so will allow you to have the best possible case, receive the lightest punishment, and move forward with your life in a better manner. To explain the value of a dangerous drugs lawyer for a dangerous drugs case, let’s take a look at some of the reasons why you absolutely need one.

Dangerous Drugs Cases Are Not Simple

Dangerous drug cases are rarely simple and straightforward. For starters, dangerous drugs cases revolve around all street drugs (other than marijuana) and the severity of the crime is based on whether there was an intent to sell or whether the drugs were for personal use only.

Furthermore, the fine punishment is based on three times the value of the confiscated drugs or $1000, favoring whichever is higher. However, if the confiscated drugs were under the $1000 mark, the common class 2 felony can be dropped down to probation for a first offense.

These are all particulars that can be determined and requested by your dangerous drugs lawyer, which is their representation is so vital.

You Could Easily Face Major Fines and Jail Time

According to DrugAbuse.com[1], “Selling drugs carries harsher penalties than those received for simple drug possession in the U.S. Consequences will vary by state, but, as an example, in Wisconsin, any delivery or distribution of a controlled substance is a felony with a fine of up to $100,000 and 40 years imprisonment.”

Even the simplest of charges can result in community service, probation, minor jail time, and $1000 in fines or more. Having a dangerous drugs lawyer on your side to get you the best results possible is the only way to reduce these charges.

A Dangerous Drugs Lawyer Will Take Care of Everything

In the end, the main reason to work with dangerous drugs lawyers is because their experience and dedication will allow you to move on with your life in a positive manner. Everyone makes mistakes, so why suffer greatly for yours if you recognize you made it and are willing to make a difference moving forward?
