AWARDS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
Texas punishes drug crimes harshly. Even minor charges can carry jail time, hefty fines, and a permanent criminal record. Criminal convictions can make it more difficult to secure housing and employment. Your professional licenses, immigration status, firearm rights, and reputation are also at stake.
With so much on the line, you need a skilled defense lawyer from My Dallas Criminal Lawyer to protect your future. Our firm can:
When you’re facing a drug charge, you need a skilled legal team that treats every case with the seriousness it deserves. My Dallas Criminal Lawyer brings a powerful combination of experience, strategy, and client-centered service to every case.
When you work with us, you’ll receive nonjudgemental representation and aggressive advocacy. Being accused of a drug crime does not make you guilty, and it doesn’t define who you are. We’ll take the time to listen, answer your questions, and help you understand what to expect throughout the process. You’ll never have to wonder what’s happening with your case.
Best of all, we don’t believe in cookie-cutter defense strategies. No two cases are alike—so we’ll thoroughly review the evidence and look for every possible weakness in the state’s case. If there was an illegal search, a faulty warrant, unreliable witnesses, or a lack of probable cause, we’ll use that to your advantage. While many cases are resolved before trial, we always prepare as if we’re going to argue your case before a jury.
Our track record reflects our commitment to relentless advocacy. Whether we’re working on getting charges dismissed, winning at trial, or negotiating favorable outcomes, we will fight for you.
My Dallas Criminal Lawyer defends clients against a range of drug charges. Whether you’re facing a misdemeanor or a serious felony, we work to protect your record. Here are some of the drug cases we commonly handle:
Possessing even a small amount of a controlled substance without a valid prescription can lead to serious charges, depending on the drug’s penalty group and quantity.
While some states have legalized marijuana, Texas still treats most marijuana possession as a criminal offense.
Possessing items associated with drug use—such as pipes, scales, or baggies—can lead to charges.
These are among the most serious drug charges in Texas. They involve allegations of producing, selling, or distributing controlled substances.
If you’re facing drug charges in Texas, you probably have a lot of questions:
After your arrest, police may hold you in jail until you see a magistrate. The magistrate sets bond and explains the charges. You’ll have an initial court appearance shortly after. From there, your case may go to pretrial hearings or trial. Contact My Dallas Criminal Lawyer as soon as possible so we can begin protecting your rights immediately.
Yes. Even small amounts of marijuana can lead to jail time in Texas. Possessing under two ounces is a Class B misdemeanor, punishable by up to 180 days in jail and a $2,000 fine. Your driver’s license could be suspended for one year. We work to get these charges dismissed or resolved through diversion or deferred adjudication.
Some drug convictions are eligible for record sealing (nondisclosure) or expungement, but only under specific conditions. A conviction could hurt your employment, education, and housing opportunities. That’s why My Dallas Criminal Lawyer fights to avoid conviction whenever possible. |
It can be tempting to represent yourself or rely on a public defender when you’re charged with lesser drug crimes. Even if you avoid jail time, however, the criminal record can follow you for years to come.
When you’re facing drug charges in Dallas, you need a defense team that knows the law and fights hard for your future. My Dallas Criminal Lawyer will analyze every detail of your case and advocate for the best possible outcome.
