Distribution Attorney in Las Vegas
Are you facing charges for distribution of a controlled substance?
Drug crimes are taken extremely seriously in the state of Nevada. Do not expect leniency if you have been arrested or charged with a drug crime, such as: possession, manufacturing and distribution. The distribution of any controlled substance, whether prescription medications or street drugs, is a felony and can result in mandatory prison time and heavy fines in a conviction. Beyond the threat of prison time, conviction on a distribution charge goes on your permanent record and will have a negative impact on your future ability to get work, get a loan or obtain any sort of professional license.
The distribution of any drugs listed on Schedule I-V means you will be facing between 1-4 years in prison and could be facing up to $10,000 in fines. You could also be facing additional charges for possession for sale/intent, which could lead to additional time added to your sentence upon conviction. If you or a loved one has been charge d with distribution, we advise you consult with a Las Vegas drug crimes lawyer at the Brown Law Offices as soon as possible. This will allow our attorneys to answer any questions you may have, review your case, analyze the evidence and begin building you an aggressive defense.
Las Vegas Distribution Lawyer
Distribution is a serious crime, in that it opens the door for potentially deadly narcotics and prescription drugs to get into the wrong hands, and law enforcement is heavily involved in identifying those involved in these activities. Nevada law clearly states it is illegal to import, transport, exchange, barter, sell, supply, prescribe, dispense, give away, administer or manufacture any controlled substance.
Even if you had no intention to distribute, you could still be facing distribution charges solely based on the amount, or volume, of drugs in your possession.
Our firm understands how drug crimes are prosecuted. We know, because our lead attorney is a former Chief Prosecutor for the Clark County District Attorney's office. The experience and knowledge he possesses about search & seizure issues and other failures on the part of law enforcement, allows us to have a unique insight into the prosecution. We have found it allows us a perspective most other attorneys do not have, which is important, since we know how much a conviction and imprisonment could negatively impact you, your family and your future.
