Texas Drug Crimes Defense Lawyer
Houston Drug Crimes Defense Attorney
Just because you were arrested by Texas state police or a local sheriff, that does not mean your case will be heard in state court. Depending upon the nature of the crime, whether it occurred across state or national borders, the amount of drugs involved, and other factors, your drug case could be heard in federal court.
If you are charged in Texas criminal courts, you will be prosecuted by the county district attorney at the county courthouse. If you are convicted, you face penalties under Texas drug crimes guidelines, which are typically not as harsh or as cut-and-dried as federal sentencing guidelines. That does not mean the penalties in Texas are not harsh.
You need an experienced Texas drug crimes defense lawyer if you are facing criminal charges for a felony drug offense such as:
- Drug cultivation
- Drug manufacturing
- Drug trafficking
- Internet drug sales (including illegal sale of prescription drugs, sale of knock-off or fake prescription drugs, sale of controlled substances like steroids or human growth hormone, sale of precursor chemicals used in the manufacture of other drugs, like methamphetamines)
- Intent to sell (if you are charged with having a large amount of drugs in your possession but there is no evidence that a sale has occurred)
