What are the Penalties for Drug Crime Convictions?

The government is cracking down on drug crimes, and as such, these types of offenses are harshly prosecuted. The DA has considerable resources at their disposal and will fight hard to land a conviction. It is no mystery that the penalties for drug crimes in Alabama are severe.

Depending on the type and amount of substance, as well as the purpose for having it, you could be charged with a misdemeanor or felony. For example, possession of marijuana for personal use is a Class A misdemeanor, which is punishable by up to 1 year in jail and up to $6,000 in fines. However, you could face a Class B felony charge if you distribute between 8 to 27 grams of cocaine. The penalties for a conviction include up to 20 years in prison and up to $30,000 in fines.

Whether this is your first encounter with the criminal system or your third, you cannot afford to take any chances. You need an advocate who is committed to your best interests.
