We Defend Clients Against Many Drug Charges

Most people would agree that drugs are a problem in communities. However, the “drug problem” response has always been overzealous, with steep, punishing charges for nonviolent offenses. Anyone facing a drug charge must secure a skilled, dedicated attorney.

Dedication and service are the hallmarks of what we value at Salvado Law. Our attorneys work closely with our clients and provide them with the legal insight and experienced representation they deserve. We provide clients from Virginia and Maryland with our respected criminal defense services, and we stand by our work.

Comprehensive Drug Defense Services

Drug crime takes on many forms, and there are many potential charges that police and prosecutors may pursue. Our firm has extensive experience defending clients charged with:

  • Possession
  • Trafficking
  • Distribution and sale
  • Manufacturing

These types of charges are slightly different in both Virginia and Maryland. The severity of the charge you face can depend on many factors, such as the amount of the substance or your intention.

Prescription Drug Charges Vs. Illegal Drug Charges

One of the major issues in drug enforcement is the proliferation of prescription medication. While the substances themselves are not illegal, they are often sold illegally to people without a prescription. This is one of the contributing factors to the ongoing “opioid epidemic.”

In truth, charges for prescription drugs and illegal drugs mirror each other. Virginia law reserves its strictest charges for substances such as:

  • Methamphetamine
  • Cocaine
  • Heroine
  • Marijuana

However, our attorneys have successfully defended clients against any type of drug charge in both states. We understand what is at stake and will work aggressively to protect you against the charges ahead.
