Representation for Drug Crimes Involving Methamphetamines
If you are charged of a crime involving methamphetamines in federal court, you are facing serious penalties including the loss of your freedom through imprisonment. In recent years, methamphetamine use has spread rapidly and members of the United States Congress have taken steps to increase the penalties for its possession or manufacture. Possession of a quantity as low as fifty grams of methamphetamine carries a mandatory minimum sentence of ten years in prison for a first time offender. Indeed, possession of just five grams carries a mandatory five year prison sentence. Even worse, possession of fifty grams or more can be punished by life in prison without the possibility of release if you have just two prior federal or state drug felony convictions - even for simple possession. Because of this, methamphetamine offenses are aggressively prosecuted in federal court. Whether you face charges for possession with intent to distribute, distribution of, or manufacturing methamphetamines, it is important that you get the experienced representation you deserve and need.

You may fall under the suspicion of law enforcement agencies if it is noticed that you have received or are receiving unusual amounts of precursor chemicals that are used to manufacture methamphetamines, such as pseudoephedrine, sodium hydroxide or Freon - the sales of these chemicals is closely monitored by the federal government. The use of methamphetamines, also called speed, ice, crank, or crystal meth, is becoming more widespread and its use has recently jumped up in rural areas where illegal drug use was previously unknown. For these reasons, the United States Congress has expressed great concern and methamphetamine related crimes are currently more aggressively prosecuted than almost any other drug crimes in the United States. You need an attorney who can stand up for your Constitutional rights in methamphetamine cases.
