Understanding The Penalties You Face
In Florida, the penalties are harsh for illegal possession of pharmaceutical drugs. Prosecutors and law enforcement are cracking down on prescription drug charges. Xanax is a common prescription drug that is often illegally obtained through theft or prescription fraud. If you have been charged with illegal possession of Xanax, it is crucial that you carefully heed the following:
- Do not wait to obtain an experienced attorney.
- Do not say anything to law enforcement.
The longer you wait to hire an attorney, the more time you are wasting. This is valuable time that your attorney could be using to start building your defense. In addition, anything you say to law enforcement can and will be used against you. Say nothing and wait for your attorney.
This Drug Is Just As Controlled As Heroin
Xanax is considered a controlled substance, meaning you must have a valid and legal prescription to possess it and it is carefully monitored by pharmacies. Many clients are surprised to find out that illegal possession of Xanax is just as serious as possession of cocaine or heroin.
If you are charged with illegal possession of Xanax, you are facing a third-degree felony conviction and up to five years in jail. That is why it is so important to have an experienced and skilled attorney like those at The Law Office of Corey I. Cohen & Associates on your side.
