Criminal Law

Criminal law broadly refers to laws at the state and federal level which make certain types of behavior illegal and which punish these behaviors through imprisonment and/or fines. Criminal Law is a field of law that deals exclusively with criminal sentencing and criminal punishments.

The law practice of a criminal defense attorney usually specializes in two categories of crimes: misdemeanors or lesser crimes, and feloniesor greater crimes. Individuals accused of criminal activity (even first-time offenders) should consult with a criminal lawyer or defense attorney as soon as possible.

A specialized and experienced criminal defense lawyer can help individuals in all stages of the criminal process because throughout all stages of the criminal process, an individual who is suspected of or charged with a crime has certain fundamental rights which are derived from the U.S. Constitution as well as key court decisions.

Drug Crimes

Drug crimes cover crimes of possession, manufacture, use, and distribution. The legality of each drug is determined by the Controlled Substances Act, which groups drugs into five separate "schedules," with Schedule I marking the most controlled and dangerous drugs. Drug crime lawyers include marijuana lawyers, prescription drug lawyers, ecstasy lawyers, and other criminal lawyers.

Drug crimes can carry very serious penalties and do not look good on your criminal record. A criminal defense lawyer can help you mount a defense against the charges. A criminal lawyer's knowledge of your state's laws and experience may prove vital to your case. In addition, a drug crime lawyer can help you dismiss or clear a marijuana charge in the state that has now legalized marijuana.
