Virginia Drug Lawyer

Virginia drug laws penalize the possession, manufacture, and distribution of illegal drugs as well as the illicit possession and distribution of prescription medications. Penalties for drug offenses vary based on the type of drug in question and the severity of the charge; for example, conviction of simple marijuana possession would net a lighter sentence than possession with intent to distribute or possession of a controlled dangerous substance such as heroin. Regardless of the circumstances, no Virginia drug charge should be taken lightly. With fines and incarceration, including mandatory minimums for certain drug offenses, as possible penalties, a drug conviction can have a serious impact on your finances and your freedom. Protect yourself with skilled defense from a qualified Virginia drug lawyer.
