Gilroy and San Jose Prescription Drug Crimes
Drug crimes include the illegal possession and sale of legal prescription drugs. At Hinkle, Jachimowicz, Pointer & Emanuel, our California attorneys defend clients facing charges involving prescription drugs. We are strong advocates for our clients, building on our lawyers' many years of experience defending against all types of drug crime charges.
Our legal team includes two former police officers who know how such cases are investigated and prosecuted. This gives them the ability to quickly identify weaknesses in the state's cases. Whether the problem involves weaknesses in the chain of evidence or a violation of a defendant's rights, our attorneys are able to act to benefit the firm's clients. This can mean that the drug charges are reduced or dismissed; reduction of charges can lead to alternative or reduced penalties.
Examples of Our Santa Clara Illegal Prescription Drug Charges
Criminal cases involving prescription drugs can involve:
- Obtaining prescription drugs using forged prescriptions
- Doctor shopping to obtain multiple prescriptions
- Theft of a physician's prescription books
- Forgery of a physician's signature
Many prescription drugs lend themselves to abuse and thus have street value. These include Xanax, OxyContin, steroids, HGH (human growth hormone), Adderall and other amphetamines, and we have defended many clients against charges involving drugs such as these. We have also defended numerous people who committed drug fraud because they became addicted to painkillers after accidents or serious illnesses. Our attorneys have helped these clients obtain help for their addiction while defending them in court.
