Ocean County Drug Crime Attorney

Ocean County NJ Drug Charges Lawyer

Drug Crimes Defense Attorneys in Toms River, New Jersey

The State of New Jersey places great importance on diminishing drug and narcotics activity. Due to assertive prosecution and an overall societal stance against narcotics and prescription drug abuse, law enforcement targets drug crimes and prosecutes them aggressively. Drug convictions are serious. They can include the severe and immediate penalties of long-term incarceration, heavy fines, probation, mandatory drug testing and in-patient treatment. Most people who have been convicted on drug charges often find the long-term effects of conviction to be even more severe. Drug crime convictions will remain on your permanent criminal record, which can seriously limit your educational, employment, financial and professional opportunities indefinitely.
