Drug Offense Lawyer
Jacksonville, Florida
The State of Florida prosecutes drug related crimes very aggressively. Florida is one of the main places that drugs enter the United States from other countries. In order to help stem the flow of drugs in Florida prosecutors follow a zero tolerance policy. In Florida drug related crimes can be either a felony or a misdemeanor. The amount of drugs that you have in your possession at the time of the arrest is the determining factor in whether you are charged with a felony or a misdemeanor.
If you are arrested for a drug crime you can be charged with several different offenses. Examples of the charge or charges that can be brought are:
- Manufacturing or growing drug
- Possession of drugs or drug paraphernalia
- Possession of drugs with an intent to sell
- Trafficking or distribution of drugs
- Fraudulently selling something as a drug
- Selling prescription drugs
- Use of a controlled substance
Not all drug crimes involve “illegal” drugs. Many crimes involve abuse of prescription medications due to an addiction. At Hardesty, Tyde, Green & Ashton we try to see the “big picture.” We will explore every possibility to help our clients. Sometimes drug treatment and rehabilitation programs can be very helpful not only to the arrested person, but for their family as well.
