Drug/Alcohol Crimes Durham
Drug and Alcohol Attorney in Durham, NH and Strafford County, NH
There are many cases in which the services of a drug possession lawyer or an alcohol possession lawyer are required. If you or someone close to you has found themselves charged with possession, distribution, or the intention to sell controlled dangerous substances (CDS), the penalties may be severe. New Hampshire laws regulating CDS predict a variety of penalties for the possession, manufacturing and sales of substances ranging from alcohol (applied to persons under the age of 21) to marijuana, hash and more serious substances such as heroin, cocaine, and crack. When charged with an alcohol or a drug offense, only an attorney who specializes in the local laws pertaining to these offenses will be able to properly help you assess the situation, set proper goals, and provide legal representation.
