Protect Your Rights with The Law Office of Peter F. Iocona

DRUG POSSESSION & DRUG SALES

 Drug possession charges are misdemeanors; however, drug possession with the intent to sell are felonies. How can someone be charged with the intent to sell? The prosecution will typically charge individuals with drug possession with the intent to sell when one or more of these the following is/are present: (1) A large quantity of a controlled substance that is more than one individual would typically use; (2) Scales used to weigh controlled substances; (3) A large amount of cash; (4) pay/owe sheets; and/or (5) Small bags used to package controlled substances for sale in small quantities suggesting the drugs are for purposes of sale. 

DRUG POSSESSION & DRUG SALES

  

Being charged with possession of drugs or drug trafficking can be overwhelming and stressful for both you and your loved ones. Some defendants wrongly assume that their charges are minor and they therefore don’t need assistance from a lawyer. However, Criminal Defense Attorneys will work to prepare a defense based on the details of your case. Some common defenses are:


  • The controlled substances were not yours.
  • You were not aware that you had controlled substances.
  • The police falsified evidence.
  • The search of your property or person was done illegally.
  • If you were charged with drug trafficking or intent to sell, lawyers      could argue that the drugs were for personal use only.


Because of the seriousness of these charges, it’s essential that you hire a lawyer who can help you fight against receiving the harshest penalties. Our team of knowledgeable Orange County narcotic defense attorneys will closely examine your case to determine an appropriate defense, and then fiercely defend your rights to obtain the best possible outcome.
