Drug Possession and Narcotics Offenses
Drug offenses are among the most widely prosecuted crimes in Texas, and carry some of the toughest punishments even for a small amount. Furthermore, possession of a certain quantity is often charged as if you were dealing drugs, with much stiffer sentences.
The criminal defense lawyers of The Parker Firm have rescued many people from harsh prison terms for drug crimes, in criminal trials and in negotiations with prosecutors. If you were arrested in Collin County or surrounding jurisdictions of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, call us immediately at 972.562.2212 for a free consultation.
Experienced Drug Crime Defense
We have handled the full spectrum of drug and narcotic offenses:
- Possession of marijuana
- Possession of a controlled substance (cocaine, meth, ecstasy, etc.)
- Illegal possession of prescription narcotics (Vicodin, Oxycontin, etc.)
- Possession for sale (intent to distribute)
- Drug transactions (sale/attempted sale)
- Possessing precursor chemicals for drug manufacturing
- Manufacture or cultivation
- Trafficking, transportation, importation or conspiracy
First time offenders and or even those with non-violent convictions may be eligible for deferred adjudication. If you qualify, there is no jail time and no final conviction on your public record if you take advantage of the opportunity by staying clean. (It still counts as a conviction if you later re-offend.)
If you are not eligible for deferment, we examine every facet of your arrest, search and seizure to determine if law enforcement violated your rights. If so, we will move to have charges dropped or evidence kept out of court. If it was a clean bust and your chances at trial are slim, we work with prosecutors to avoid or limit prison time and other consequences of pleading guilty to a drug crime.
