At the Law Office of Lauren K. Johnson, we provide representation to individuals with charges of drug possession, drug transportation, drug manufacturing, and drug distribution. There are serious consequences to drug crime convictions. Some of those convictions can include a lengthy prison sentence, trouble finding housing, the termination of government benefits, or a loss of employment.

Some drug crimes are what we call wobblers, meaning they can be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony. That may depend on the aggravating circumstances of the case and the individual’s prior criminal history. There are defenses to drug crimes.

Some of those defenses include having a prescription for the drugs charged, entrapment, that there was a search or seizure violation by the police officer, or that the drugs did not belong to the person accused of the crime. A criminal defense attorney at the Law Office of Lauren K. Johnson is in the best position to evaluate your case and your best possible defense.
