Federal Drug Offenses

Drug offenses are a serious matter, especially at the federal level. 

These offenses typically involve drug trafficking, distribution, or manufacturing on a large scale, and the consequences can be life-changing. 

A federal drug conviction can lead to lengthy prison sentences and steep fines. Additionally, these crimes carry a strong social stigma, and suspects can suffer interpersonal problems with their loved ones.

Federal law enforcement agencies are constantly working, trying to dismantle drug trafficking organizations. Those who are caught up in the system will likely face a tough legal battle ahead. 

If you or a loved one is facing a federal drug offense, reach out to us right away. The right attorney can help protect your rights and fight for your future. Let us be that team for you.

Repeat DUIs as a Federal Crime

Federal law mandates that DUI crimes will be elevated with each new offense. Second or subsequent DUI convictions come with a harsh penalty: mandatory license suspension for at least one year. 

This suspension can either completely revoke your driving privileges, or it could force a 45-day suspension followed by restricted driving privileges for the rest of the year.

Furthermore, the federal government can get involved depending on where an alleged crime takes place. You can be charged with a federal DUI if you are accused of drunk driving on federal property. Such locations include military bases or national parks.

Whether you have been charged by the state or by the feds, our team is here to help you fight any DUI accusations.

Federal Misdemeanors

Many people assume that misdemeanors are “minor” crimes. Make no mistake, federal misdemeanors are serious matters, and they can lead to lengthy jail sentences. Federal misdemeanors typically carry a sentence of at least one year in jail and fines up to $5,000.

You should not take any misdemeanor allegations lightly, especially when they are federal. Even a misdemeanor criminal record can have a serious impact on your life.

    Blessing. Truly. The day I called Albert was the beginning of Catharsis, Sincerely. As My grandfather would say God has Given instead of Thank you. This man is dedicated and listens, call you will begin to get sense of relief-the duanting becomes unduanted

    110% in your corner
    “Albert is 110% in your corner. His prior experience as a prosecutor is what drew me to hiring him. He knows the process from all sides and will fight for you as well as explain outcome possibilities in great detail. He is also a tremendous listener who empathizes and puts your mind at ease (without giving you false expectations) He is a consummate professional of whom I would hire again if needed. Go with someone that not only has the knowledge and skills to help you through your case, but will also be a human being by listening to your concerns. Go with Albert.”

You can literally call him anytime with any questions and he will help you out with no hesitation. By far the best lawyer out there. Thanks again for everything Albert!”

    Extremely Grateful for Albert!
    “After talking to two other attorneys that were very unhelpful, I was about to lose hope. Then I was referred to Albert, and I knew without hesitation that he was the attorney to represent me. He was honest, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. I had never been in a situation where I needed to hire an attorney. I made a mistake that turned my life upside down. I was terrified and confused about the situation I was in. He immediately made me feel at ease with his understanding and kindness. He gave me the confidence I needed to get through the entire process. Albert was always available to go over any questions or concerns I had himself. He was tough and relentless in negotiating with the prosecutor on my case and was able to get the second charge dropped. I am so grateful for Albert. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for representation. He is truly a pleasure to work with.”
