Skilled Drug Charges Defense Attorney Protecting Your Rights

At the Rogan Law Firm, a Scranton drug crimes attorney can meet with you during a free consultation to discuss any drug charges that you or a loved one may be facing. If you make the decision to hire a Scranton drug crimes lawyer from the Rogan Law Firm, we may be able to have drug charges lowered or dismissed. In situations where conviction cannot be avoided, we may be able to ask the courts for alternative sentencing instead of a jail or prison sentence.

At the Rogan Law Firm we represent clients accused of both state and federal drug charges throughout North Pennsylvania. The state defines drug possession as possessing illegal drugs or narcotics for the purpose of personal use or distribution. Prosecutors will typically try to add drug distribution charges onto original charges for drug possession because the state of Pennsylvania has mandatory sentencing requirements for individuals convicted of drug distribution. The attorneys at Rogan Law Firm understand that many of these charges are founded on unlawful search and seizures, and we are here to aggressively protect your rights. If you are facing charges for drug cultivation, drug manufacturing or drug trafficking, the penalties may be much more serious. Drug trafficking will most likely involve a very thorough investigation by the FBI and DEA because it is one of the most serious drug crimes that an individual can commit. Whether you have been charged with trafficking heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, marijuana or meth, you need the help of a knowledgeable drug crimes attorney to help you build a strong defense. Our team also has experience in helping clients avoid convictions for charges involving prescription fraud, medical marijuana, under the influence and search and seizure issues, so don't wait to contact us about your drug crimes case.
