Federal Drug Offense Defense Lawyers
Facing a federal drug offense is one of the most daunting legal challenges you can encounter. These charges are notoriously difficult to beat, and federal drug prosecutors are infamous for their tough stance against drug offenders. If you are facing this situation, you will need a skilled and experienced federal criminal defense lawyer on your side, fighting for you every step of the way. At Spodek Law Group, Attorney Todd Spodek and our team of attorneys can provide top-tier defense for any type of federal drug offense.
The Difficulty of Federal Drug Offense Charges
Federal drug laws are contained in Title 21 of the United States Code, and they classify each drug as belonging to one of five “schedules.” These classifications are determined by a variety of factors, including the drug’s potential for abuse, scientific evidence of its pharmacological effects, and its history of abuse. Federal drug prosecutors use these classifications to prosecute drug offenses with utmost severity.
The Importance of Experienced Federal Drug Offense Defense
A federal drug offense charge can lead to serious consequences, including jail time, probation, large fines, and asset forfeiture. That’s why it is crucial to seek the help of a qualified attorney with extensive experience in federal defense law. At Spodek Law Group, we have decades of experience in handling federal drug offense cases, and we have developed solid legal techniques that have proven effective in courts throughout the United States.
Drug Cultivation and Possession
Under federal law, it is illegal to grow, sell, distribute, transport, possess or traffic marijuana. Most federal cultivation cases that involve marijuana are prosecuted as a felony federal drug crime. A cultivating offense includes possession of marijuana seeds, planting seeds, drying the plants, and processing them. If at least two plants are discovered, police will charge an individual with cultivation and possession with intent to sell. Although California state law allows marijuana use for medical purposes, federal prosecutors can and will pursue criminal charges for marijuana cultivation cases.
Drug Importation and Smuggling
Drug importation and smuggling are serious federal drug crimes. Methamphetamine, cocaine, marijuana, heroin, ecstasy, prescription drugs, or any other illegal drug can be used in these cases. If you have been arrested by federal authorities for drug importation or smuggling, you will probably face felony criminal prosecution in a Federal Criminal Court. A conviction can lead to incarceration in a federal prison, large fines, and a permanent criminal history. Our attorneys at Spodek Law Group have extensive experience in defending clients facing these types of charges, and we will aggressively fight on your behalf.
Drug Manufacturing and Trafficking
Drug manufacturing and trafficking charges are very serious, and they can result in harsh penalties. These charges can include growing marijuana, operating a methamphetamine lab, and possessing manufacturing equipment. Federal prosecutors will aggressively pursue individuals charged with these crimes, and a conviction can lead to lengthy prison sentences and large fines. Our experienced attorneys know how to attack the case presented by the prosecutor and will pursue every single legal defense on your behalf.
Challenging Drug Crime Charges
The best legal defense against a drug crime charge is to challenge how the evidence was obtained. You have a constitutional right against illegal search and seizures. If the evidence is suppressed, the case could be dismissed. Our attorneys have a deep understanding of the law and will investigate every aspect of your case to develop a solid legal strategy to minimize the criminal consequences.
DRUG CONSPIRACY
Drug conspiracy is a federal crime that involves an agreement between two or more people to commit a drug crime, such as drug trafficking or drug distribution. A drug conspiracy charge is often added to other drug charges and can result in harsher penalties for the accused.
Being accused of drug conspiracy is a serious matter and can have severe consequences, including imprisonment, large fines, and a permanent criminal record. If you or a loved one has been charged with drug conspiracy, it is essential to seek the services of an experienced federal drug defense attorney.

DRUG TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATION
A drug trafficking organization (DTO) is a group of people who work together to import, manufacture, distribute, or sell illegal drugs. DTOs are responsible for the majority of drug trafficking in the United States and are often associated with violent crime and money laundering.
Federal law enforcement agencies have been cracking down on drug trafficking organizations in recent years, and if you are charged with being part of a DTO, you could face severe consequences, including a lengthy prison sentence and substantial fines.
If you are facing drug trafficking charges or are accused of being part of a DTO, it is crucial to seek the services of an experienced federal drug defense attorney.
