Farmington Hills Drug Sales Attorney

Drug Sales Defense Lawyer in Farmington Hills Serving Oakland County & Beyond

In Michigan, the penalties for drug offenses vary depending upon the Schedule of the drug (with Schedule I drugs considered the most serious), the quantity of the drug, and what you intended to do with the drug. For example, possession of 5 ounces or more of marijuana or possession of prescription drugs without a prescription are generally classified as misdemeanor offenses. On the other hand, if you possess the same drugs with the intent to manufacture, deliver, or sell them to another person, you are now facing felony charges, which come with increased fines and longer sentences.

If you were arrested for selling drugs or are the subject of a drug crime investigation, you have no time to lose—call me, Daniel D. Hajji, Attorney at Law, for help. As a Farmington Hills drug sales lawyer, I have helped countless clients fight their charges since 2002. My aggressive approach allows me to file motions suppress evidence, weaken the state’s case, and fight to lower your charges or get your case dismissed. My firm will do everything in my power to get the best possible outcome, period.

In addition to the above penalties, Michigan law requires the suspension of the defendant’s driver's license for drug convictions. This means that if you have no prior drug violations, your license may be suspended for six months; if you have any drug convictions in the past seven years, your license may be suspended for up to one year.
