We Handle Both Minor and Serious Drug Charges
New Jersey drug charges may be handled in either Municipal Court or Superior Court. The more serious your charge, the more likely it is to be handled in Superior Court, where penalties can involve years in prison. Also, drug charges involving inter-state conspiracy or trafficking across state lines may be handled in Federal Court.
The courts generally consider two factors in determining how serious a drug charge is — the type of drug involved, and the weight of the drug involved. The amount of controlled dangerous substances (CDS) involved will determine whether you are charged with simple possession, intent to distribute, distribution or trafficking. In addition, certain drugs, like meth, heroin and crack, can carry serious penalties, while other drugs such as marijuana may have lighter penalties depending on the quantity.
If you have been arrested with any illegal drug in any quantity, it's very important that you hire a qualified defense attorney to represent you. You can speak with an attorney at our firm 24 hours a day by calling 732-842-7787 or 866-403-2722 or you can contact us by e-mail to schedule a free initial consultation.
