Any drug crime is potentially very serious. Although there are circumstances where a first-time offender caught on a simple drug possession charge may face minimal prison time or may avoid imprisonment altogether, there are also circumstances where a person may face felony charges and many years in state prison if convicted. It typically depends on the type of drug and the amount. Whether any weapons were also found or if the offender is accused of another crime in addition to the drug crime will also influence sentencing.
Defending Charges Involving Drug Offenses in Michigan
Letting a Michigan drug crimes lawyer review your case is one of the most important things you can do. You need someone on your side in court. By conducting an independent investigation, your lawyer may discover that law enforcement actually did not have a valid search warrant and that the evidence obtained during that search may be inadmissible. This alone would greatly impact a case. You have the right to be protected from an unlawful search and seizure by law enforcement personnel. You also have the right to legal counsel in the face of any criminal charges, and this includes drug crimes.
