Maryland Drug Transportation Lawyers

Drug transportation is the unlawful transference of a controlled substance or narcotic from one place to another by any means. This is an extremely serious crime in Maryland or for that matter, anywhere in the United States. The severity of the drug transportation penalties depends on the specific details of the case, the type or drugs, the quantity of drugs being transported and whether or not you are a repeat offender. If you are being investigated for drug transportation or if you are facing drug transportation charges, you should immediately get experienced legal counsel on your side. Your freedom and your life could depend on it. The stakes are extremely high when you have been charged with a crime, especially a crime that involves drug transportation.

Drug transportation applies to any transportation of any amount of controlled substances irrespective of the distance and quantity of drugs transported. In cases where the drug transportation occurs across state or national borders, the crimes will be charged under federal law and will also most likely include the charge of drug possession with the intent to distribute. Whether it is marijuana, cocaine, heroin, LSD, methamphetamine, Ecstasy or any other prescription or pharmaceutical drug, you may face serious consequences.

The consequences for the conviction of criminal drug transportation or drug distribution may include:

  • Lengthy prison time
  • Probation or parole
  • Registration as a narcotics offender for life
  • Mandatory periodic drug testing
  • Search and seizure of property and/or motor vehicle
  • Significant monetary fines
  • Court-ordered counseling or drug rehabilitation
  • Loss of the right to possess a firearm or weapon
  • Community service
  • Deportation
  • Driver's license suspension or revocation
