What Makes a Drug Crime a Federal Offense?

Drug crime cases are tricky to navigate, because they can involve both state and federal crimes. If you’re facing drug crime charges, you need a skilled federal defense attorney to battle on your behalf.

How a Drug Crime Charge Becomes a Federal Offense

Typically, drug arrests are made by local police officers. There is the potential, however, that a federal agent may make an arrest for a drug crime, especially if the case involves numerous states or countries. If a federal officer makes the arrest, the crime will almost always be charged at the federal level. The charge may also become federal if local law enforcement is working together with federal agencies.

If your case is in the federal system, you and your attorney will need to do everything possible to get you out of it. You may want to consider a plea bargain or other options to avoid the harsh penalties that accompany a federal drug crime conviction, but our lawyers have the skill required to prove your innocence as well. We will walk you through every step and help you explore the potential approaches to your defense. When you choose to partner with Grabel & Associates, you can rest assured that your attorney will do everything he or she can to equip you to make wise decisions. You will face life-altering choices throughout the course of your case, so it’s important to have the knowledge and sound advice necessary to choose the right path.

The Punishment for Federal Drug Crimes

If you’re convicted of a federal drug crime, you’ll most likely face a minimum sentence imposed by law. This means that the judge cannot give you a lesser sentence, regardless of the unique details of your case. You could be up against large fines, extensive prison time, or both. Opportunities for probation are also extremely limited, especially for drug crimes, and the parole system for these offenses has been removed completely. Since the stakes are so high, it’s crucial to have an attorney that you trust fighting for you. The team at Grabel & Associates knows what it takes to win and will do everything in their power to clear your name or earn you the best available outcome.
