When You Need A Lawyer For Drug Charges In Philadelphia Call The Fishman Firm

Drug possession is one of the most commonly charged crimes in Pennsylvania, as well as one of the most common crimes on college campuses across the state. With so many colleges and universities in Philadelphia such as University of Pennsylvania, Temple University, Saint Joseph’s University, and Drexel University, more and more students are being charged with drug possession as schools try to crack down on illegal behavior on campus. Being convicted of drug possession can have far-reaching consequences, and those consequences become even greater if prosecutors determine you had the intent to distribute those drugs to anyone else.

A conviction for drug possession can have a serious impact on anyone’s life, but it is especially detrimental for students. Drug possession is a legitimate reason for expulsion from most schools, and the possession of any amount of marijuana or even legal medications, such as Xanax, Percocet and oxycodone, without a prescription, can result in a conviction that prevents you from landing future employment or being accepted into other educational programs or the military. If arrested for drug possession while a student at a Philadelphia college or university, you will face disciplinary action from the school as well as criminal prosecution. The Fishman Firm can provide you with the drug charge defense you need in Philadelphia. This stressful time can be worked through with the proper defense. When you are facing a drug charge, it is important to remember that being found with a controlled substance in your possession does not mean an automatic conviction. Let us fight hard with you to get the best possible results in your case.
