Drug Crimes
Drug Crime Defense Lawyers Fighting for You
Immediate drug charge help for clients.
With the ever-increasing prevalence of illegal drug use, strict laws have been enacted to combat both possession and distribution. This has led to convictions for many juveniles, first time offenders, and others who have simply lost control of their lives and need counseling, not punishment. Unfortunately prosecutors, and the courts often focus only on punishment. This can lead not only to incarceration but to felony convictions that prevent employment.
If you have been arrested for or charged with a drug crime, it is vital to have a skilled drug attorney at your side. The attorneys at Newton & Hall can handle any drug case, from simple drug possession to complex federal drug delivery or trafficking cases.

As skilled drug defense attorneys, we are ready to fight in any court at any time. We handle matters in municipal courts, district courts, juvenile courts, superior courts and federal courts.

Skilled Drug Attorneys Serving Kent and Washington residents
In Washington, possession of any controlled substance other than 40 grams or less of marijuana is a Class C felony punishable by up to five years in prison and $10,000 in fines. The term controlled substance refers to illegal drugs including:
Heroin
Cocaine
Methamphetamine
Prescription drugs (i.e. Oxycontin, Valium, Benzodiazepines, Vicodin, Zanax, etc.)
Ecstasy
Steroids
Methadone
Amphetamines
If you are accused of manufacturing or distributing these substances, the amount of prison time and fines increase significantly. And if you are accused of using a gun in the course of committing a drug crime, you will likely face severe federal and state charges. You need a criminal defense lawyer to present a strong case on your behalf. We have the experience and tenacity to do so and will fight aggressively for your best outcome.
