Types of Drug Offences We Defend
Emma Turnbull Lawyers provides defence representation across a wide range of drug offences. Each charge carries different legal elements and potential penalties, and every case requires a carefully considered strategy.
Our team has acted in matters involving:
- Drug possession: where an individual is found with a controlled substance such as cannabis, methamphetamine, cocaine, or ecstasy.
- Trafficking or supplying drugs: including situations involving quantities, packaging, or communications suggesting intent to distribute.
- Cultivation or manufacturing: such as growing cannabis plants or producing prohibited substances.
- Importation and large commercial offences: serious charges that may proceed to the County or Supreme Court.
The penalties for these offences depend on several factors, the type and quantity of the drug, your involvement, and any previous record. Early legal advice is essential to understand your options and to identify whether charges can be negotiated, reduced, or dismissed.
