Prescription Drugs

When most people think of drug crimes, they think of crimes associated with illegal drugs such as marijuana or cocaine. An emerging problem in Michigan and around the U.S. is the illegal use or misuse of prescription drugs.

Some prescription drug crime scenarios are as follows:

• Children stealing parents' prescription drugs and selling them to friends
• Individuals stealing doctors' prescription pad and writing their own prescriptions
• Unlawfully producing or distributing prescription drugs

The penalties of a prescription drug conviction can be just as severe as those involving illegal drugs. Individuals still need an aggressive legal defense to protect their rights. In the past, we have handled cases involving Ritalin, Vicodin, Oxycontin, and other prescription drugs.

First-Time Offenders

In Michigan, first-time drug offenders may be eligible for expungement, or the clearing of a criminal record. To be considered for expungement, clients must complete a year-long probationary period following their arrest or conviction. The availability of expungement may vary depending on court and judge, so it is essential to speak to one of our experienced attorneys to find out if you may be eligible for criminal record clearing. Our number is (248) 626-5555.
