Houston Prescription Drug Trafficking Attorney
Illegal trafficking in prescription painkillers is viewed by some as a social epidemic. Narcotics are easy to get and easy to get addicted to. Patients, their family members and health care professionals including doctors, nurses and pharmacists frequently become psychologically and physically dependent on prescription medications. Addiction to controlled substances leads to lapses in judgment — and all too often, legal trouble.
Controlled Substance Charges
Vicodin, Oxycodone, Valium, Xanax or Percocet — regardless of the circumstances behind your drug charges, your need for an aggressive drug crime defense attorney cannot be underestimated.
Your Legal Rights
Contact Chip B. Lewis LLC to schedule a consultation with an experienced, trial-ready Texas criminal defense attorney regarding a prescription drug trafficking investigation, charge or arrest. Understand your rights as a defendant in a controlled substances criminal case. Learn about mandatory sentencing guidelines, plea bargaining, rehabilitative legal remedies and probation.
A Strong Defense
Discussing the facts of your prescription drug trafficking case can provide the basis for a strong defense. Your arrest may have been the result of an illegal search and seizure of evidence of your possession or sale of a controlled substance. The evidence against you may be faulty. Mitigating factors such as a legitimate pain need that led to unlawful prescription drug trafficking may point the way to rehabilitation in place of incarceration, even if the prosecution's case is solid.
