AUSTIN DRUG POSSESSION LAWYER

Serious Lawyers For Serious Charges

When Facing Criminal Charges, Every Second Counts

STEVEN C. LEE & ASSOCIATES

The penalties for drug possession vary widely and depend both on the type and quantity of drugs involved, but even possession of marijuana is a charge to take seriously. Possession charges could result in prison or jail time, probation, and/or the payment of thousands of dollars in fines. You may also have to enter a drug education and treatment program. Moreover, a conviction for possession of any drug will automatically involve a 6 month suspension of your driver’s license under Texas statutes. In addition, the police may seize your car or any other property that they believe may be a product of drug trafficking. On top of all of this, a drug possession conviction will create a life long criminal record, keeping you from getting certain jobs and obtaining most professional licenses.

POSSESSION OF A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE FACTS

Illegal drugs and narcotics are generally referred to as controlled substances. Regardless of what the drug is, possession of any controlled substance, including possession of marijuana, is a crime under state and federal law. Drug possession crimes are quite common and constitute a large percentage of the criminal charges in any area. While you may think that possessing drugs is a minor offense, the penalties for mere possession of a controlled substance can prove quite serious.

Typically, controlled substance charges arise when drugs are found in, on, or near you. Often, the drug is detected through a search of your body, car or home. Alternatively, you can be charged with “constructive possession” of a controlled substance if the drug is found in an area to which you have unrestricted access. Constructive possession charges can be levied against you even though you had no knowledge of the drugs' presence and were a guest in the car, house, or apartment where the drugs were found.

To avoid conviction, you need a criminal defense lawyer who has an intimate understanding of the search and seizure laws of the State of Texas and a willingness to enforce those laws against the police officers involved in detecting the drug. Oftentimes, the key to successfully defending against a drug charge depends on challenging the methods and means used by the police in finding the drugs.
