Will County Drug Charge Attorney

Facing any type of criminal charges in Illinois is a serious matter, but drug crimes in particular require an immediate, strong legal defense. If convicted, you could face heavy fines, a mandatory minimum jail sentence, and a criminal record which follows you the rest of your life. At Sabuco Beck, P.C., we take these types of charges seriously, providing the kind of aggressive legal representation you need to ensure your rights are protected. As Will County drug charge attorneys, we have over 125 combined experience in handling even the toughest cases and can help strategize your best course of defense.  

Aggressive Legal Representation for Drug Charges In Illinois

Drug charges are listed as a criminal offense under the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. These laws cover everything from prescription medications and the use of anabolic steroids to illegal street drugs, such as marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, and heroin. At Sabuco Beck, P.C., we provide aggressive, professional representation for clients facing the following types of charges:

• Possession of controlled substances, which can involve penalties of up to 10 years or more in prison and fines up to $200,000 depending on the type and quantity of drugs you possess;
• Drug manufacturing and distribution, which can involve penalties of up to 60 years in prison and fines up to $500,000, depending on the type, quantity, and previous charges.
• Drug trafficking, which can involve severe penalties under state laws as well as federal drug charges that could result in a mandatory minimum prison sentence of 20 years or more, and may include the possibility of a life sentence.

Depending on the circumstances, any previous charges, and whether you are also charged with other criminal activities, such as robbery or theft, in addition to your drug charges, your case could be referred to the Will County Drug Court. While this can help you avoid a potential prison sentence, you would still be required to pay fines and would have to appear at bi-weekly court visits, submit to random drug tests, and pay for and attend mandatory drug and alcohol education sessions.
