Navigating Drug Crime Charges Together
At Welch & Wright, we are deeply committed to helping our clients understand the complexities of drug crime charges. Whether it’s possession, distribution, or manufacturing, we’re here to provide clear, comprehensible guidance every step of the way.
Basic Understanding of Drug Crimes & Charges
Drug crimes involve illegal substances such as narcotics, stimulants, and prescription medications used unlawfully. Virginia’s Code of Laws article § 18.2-247 provides an extensive list of rules and regulations for what is considered drugs and controlled substances. Offenses for a drug charge can range from minor possession to more serious charges like trafficking. Even with the partial decriminalization of marijuana, drug charges in Virginia are complex and still enforced strictly. Each case brings its own set of challenges, but with the help of our experienced team, we’ll navigate them with wisdom and compassion.
Types of Drug Crimes Defense Offered
Our defense strategies are as varied as the cases we handle. From questioning the legality of a search and seizure to challenging the evidence’s validity, we tailor our approach to fit your unique situation. We’re dedicated to presenting your case in a favorable manner, focusing on reducing charges or seeking alternative resolutions where possible.
