Drug Crimes in Kirkland

Our Kirkland Drug Attorneys Can Help If You're Facing A Drug-Related Criminal Charge

Drug crimes are treated with extreme seriousness in Washington State. The penalties of a drug-related charge can have far-reaching effects on your life. Kirkland law enforcement officials often seek maximum sentences for drug crime offenders on the Municipal, State, and Federal levels. The entire Seattle area is a hub of illegal drug trafficking activity due to the airport, seaports, and close proximity of the I-5 Corridor running from Mexico to Canada, which offers an appealing transportation nexus for criminals.

Drugs like heroin, prescription drugs, crystal meth, and cocaine are routinely being trafficked and sold in the Kirkland area. Anyone caught making, selling, or possessing drugs or paraphernalia will likely face maximum sentences from local Kirkland police and prosecutors. If you find yourself charged with a drug crime of any sort, our Kirkland drug lawyers will work to defend your rights and fight to minimize the punishments associated with a conviction.

Convictions for drug crimes incur mandatory penalties that could lead to a lengthy prison sentence and have a direct impact on your life. Even more severe penalties could be handed down for violations of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act, also called VUSCA. Manufacturing any drug could lead to a criminal charge for this violation, but sometimes even a simple possession charge could qualify. Our Kirkland drug attorneys will help you better understand how Washington law applies to your personal situation. They will also explain the punishments accompanying a conviction, and help you take steps to avoid this end result.

Drug crime charges may include drug DUI, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a controlled substance, sales or delivery of a controlled substance, possession with intent to sell, or drug importation or manufacturing. Also taken into consideration will be the federal schedule of the drug in question, as well as how much of the drug you had in your possession when arrested.

The penalties can be even more severe if you already have a criminal record. If this is your first offense, it’s possible the court could allow you to enter a diversion program. If you already have prior drug convictions, the prosecutor might seek to penalize you to the fullest extent of the law.

"I can't say enough great things about Jason Newcombe Law Office. I am retired military and I highly recommend Jason Newcombe Law Office. I reached out to Jason's office after sitting for hours reviewing multiple Domestic Violence Law Offices in King County. He responded before that day was over. I spoke with Jason's both in-person and by phone; felt very comfortable with his years of experience and straight talk. He took on my case, took me through the process with sound advice. The Attorney Erin Lane who accompanied me with my court appearances; can't praise and thank her enough for her time, selflessness and educational information prior to each court appearance. She made a really daunting task for me less fearful, given such grim circumstances. I am forever grateful for Jason and the Team of Attorneys." Tommy Harville
