You Can Trust a Drug Offence Lawyer

A drug charge can have a severe impact on your life, especially if you are trafficking, producing, or importing a drug illegally. Many of our clients fall victim to a drug charge after attending a party and receiving drugs unknowingly, or first-time offenders who take drugs based on peer pressure. We believe that one mistake should not dictate the rest of your life, which is why we are determined to represent you in court. As drug offence lawyers serving Calgary and all of Alberta, we can create a compelling case on your behalf to eliminate the charges or reduce your sentencing. Based on the severity of the crime, the defence may be more complicated, but we are experts at interpreting the law in your favour. Call Alberta Criminal Defence Lawyers as soon as you’ve been charged with any drug offence.

We are Tough on the Law
What a Calgary DUI Lawyer Can Do For You

You should call a drug possession lawyer as soon as you are arrested for drug possession. While convictions for drug offences result in mandatory jail sentences, we can use our extensive knowledge of the Canadian justice system to reduce your sentence or to find faults, errors, and inconsistencies with the arrest procedure. As a means of maintaining your liberty, we can help to guide you through a different outcome, before your case goes to trial. In some instances, a Crown Prosecutor may refer you to the Alternative Measures Program which requires community service in exchange for the dropping of your charges. If you are found in possession of any drug, including cocaine, heroin, morphine, oxycodone, codeine, GHBm LSD, or others, Alberta Criminal Defence Lawyers should be your first call.

FAQs

Drug trafficking may result in a life sentence in prison if the drug is cocaine, heroin, marijuana, morphine, opium, oxycontin, codeine, or GHB. Other drugs may result in less severe penalties.

While convictions for illegal drug offences come with a mandatory jail sentence, you may be eligible for an Alternative Measures Program. If the case goes to trial and you find yourself convicted, we can negotiate a better outcome. Call us to talk to a defence lawyer about your options.

While in police custody, practice your right to remain silent; you do not have to give a statement. You should also write down everything you remember about the arrest and the events leading up to it as this may be useful in building your defence. Finally, don’t forget to call a criminal defence lawyer as soon as possible you don’t have to face these charges alone.
