At Adams, Luka, & Benton, we know how aggressive prosecutors are in their efforts to obtain a conviction.

Even a conviction for a relatively minor drug crime can dramatically impact your life. While you may not face substantial prison time for an offense such as marijuana possession, you will have a criminal record which will affect employment opportunities, educational opportunities, even your ability to purchase or rent a home in some instances. Florida takes drug crimes very seriously; you should as well if you have been charged or are under investigation.
Our firm has experienced great success in defending clients accused of such drug offenses as:
- Drug Trafficking
- Marijuana Charges
- Drug Paraphernalia
- Marijuana Grown in Home
- Cultivation of Marijuana
- Cocaine Charges
- Possession with Intent to Sell
- Drug Sales and Delivery
- Molly/MDMA Charges
While the penalties vary widely depending on the type and amount of drug involved, the specific crime, where the offense took place, criminal history, and other factors, many drug crimes will result in prison time and substantial fines if the defendant is found guilty. While those crimes charged as a misdemeanor offense do not typically result in penalties as harsh as those for a felony conviction, you may still face up to one year in county jail. If found guilty of a felony, you may be sentenced to up to 30 years in prison. Essentially your freedom, reputation, career, and even relationships may be at stake.

Through thorough investigation and careful analysis of the evidence, we work to develop a strong, effective defense strategy and determine all possible legal options, looking for any weaknesses which may exist in the state's case against you.
