Good People Do Get Arrested.

Defending You Against Possession Of Controlled Substances Charges

Last updated on February 15, 2024

Law enforcement agencies in Florida are still actively engaged in the war on drugs. There are countless groups of officers devoting all of their time and energy toward the investigation of drug crimes. Their main goal is to remove as many drugs from the streets as possible, and if you are in possession of a controlled substance, you could find yourself facing significant charges.

The attorneys at the Law Firm of Scott T. Moorey have more than two decades of experience fighting for people throughout Lee, Collier, Charlotte, Hendry, and Glades counties who have been charged with the possession of controlled substances. We have a keen understanding of drug laws, and the penalties that may apply and will offer you straightforward advice about what we think might happen in these cases.

You have rights. But it is up to you to do something to protect them. Our lawyers make it our goal to provide you with an aggressive defense throughout the entirety of your case. Call us today at 888-821-9168 for a free consultation.

Helping You See The Big Picture

In these cases, several different factors will determine what you are up against. The arresting agency and the amount of the drugs, as well as the drug in question, will mean a great deal when considering potential charges or sentences that may result if convicted.

We have practical experience representing a number of people who have been in possession of a wide range of controlled substances, including:

  • Marijuana
  • Cocaine
  • Heroin
  • Meth
  • Amphetamine
  • Prescription medications such as painkillers
  • Fentanyl
  • LSD
  • Club drugs
  • GHB
  • Anabolic steroids

Strong penalties may be handed down if you have prior convictions on your record. Before making any decisions about your case, it is important that you have a clear picture of the consequences that may result if you plead guilty or are convicted of the offense.

Our attorneys are here to explain the charges against you, as well as the potential punishments that can apply to your situation. We then discuss the defenses that may be available to help you defeat or minimize your charges. We use our knowledge of the criminal justice system to help you determine the right approach to take in your case.
