Distribution

Bakersfield Drug Distribution Defense Attorney

Facing Drug Distribution Charges?

Distribution of drugs is a serious crime that goes along with sales and trafficking. These are felony charges, and as such, the punishments are extremely harsh. Judges and prosecutors crack down upon those who stand accused of distributing illegal drugs in California, and they will do everything in their power to convict and punish in order to send a message to others about the cost of dealing drugs. If you are facing charges for a drug crime involving distribution, trafficking, transporting or manufacturing, contact a Bakersfield drug distribution defense lawyer from our firm immediately. With cases of this nature, time is of the essence, and you need an attorney to begin working on your defense as soon as possible.

Facing felony charges is very serious and can permanently damage your life and opportunities, including restricting your ability to hold certain professional licenses. These legal matters can also adversely affect your family situation-you may lose visitation with your children if it is believed that they were endangered by your drug activities. To avoid these consequences, you need an attorney who will fight for your freedom. A conviction of drug distribution will likely result in a lengthy jail sentence, and time spent in federal prison, if your charges are tried as a federal crime, as well as monetary fines anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 dollars, probation, community service, and parole. You need to speak with an attorney immediately to find out what your options are to pursue a favorable case outcome.
