Drug Crimes in Federal Way

Our Federal Way Drug Lawyers Can Help With Any Drug-Related Criminal Charge

drug on tableDrug crimes are ubiquitous in the US, Washington, and Federal Way. State, Municipal, and Federal law enforcement officials all expend significant resources in the pursuit of those who commit these serious drug crimes. The Seattle area is a hub of Washington drug trafficking because of its proximity to the airport, seaports, and I-5 Corridor, which runs from Mexico to Canada.

All sorts of drugs circulate through the Federal Way and Seattle area, including crystal meth, heroin, cocaine, crack, and prescription drugs. Seattle law enforcement agents prosecute people who sell or possess any controlled substance, often seeking maximum sentences. If you've been charged with a drug crime in Washington State, our Federal Way drug attorneys will pursue the dismissal or reduction of your charges.

A drug crime conviction will incur severe penalties that will likely have a dramatic impact on the your life, and the lives of everyone in your family. If convicted of violating the Uniform Controlled Substances Act, also called VUSCA, your punishments will likely be even more severe. A violation of VUSCA means that you've been accused of manufacturing drugs, or possessing them. Our Federal Way drug lawyers can help you better understand how your situation applies to the law. We will then discuss potential avenues of defense before outlining the penalties involved if you're convicted.

Penalties for drug crime convictions are determined by the Washington State court, which considers details pertaining to your crime when determining the severity of the punishments. The federal schedule of the drug will be taken into account, as will the quantity of that drug in your possession. If you possessed large amounts of a drug, the prosecutor may interpret this an intent to sell.

If you already have a criminal record or were convicted for possessing drugs in the past, this could influence how your case is prosecuted. Sometimes the court allows those convicted of drug crimes to enter a diversion program or accept a first-time waiver, but If you have previous convictions, you will likely face a strict prosecution.
