Have You Been Charged with a Drug Crime in Pennsylvania?

Our Experienced Drug Attorneys Can Help.

In Pennsylvania, illegal possession of drugs or a controlled substance and trafficking illegal narcotics are taken very seriously and penalties are some of the toughest in the country. Prosecutors have a wide range of options in deciding what charges to file against you.

A conviction of even a minor drug charge can affect your ability to gain employment, not to mention cause harm to your family, your future, and, for college and university students, your eligibility to receive federal student loans, not to mention enrollment eligibility.

Even a first-time drug offense can mean prison time, a driver’s license suspension and cost thousands of dollars in fines.Oftentimes, the penalties you face upon conviction depend on whether you are being charged with a summary offense, misdemeanor, or felony. The penalties will also vary greatly as to whether you face simple possession charges or PWID, or possession with intent to distribute. 

Our number one goal is for your criminal charges to be reduced or dismissed.
