What Is Drug Conspiracy?

In New York and federal courts, a drug conspiracy charge doesn’t require actual possession — just an agreement between two or more people to commit a drug-related offense. This can include:

  • Conspiracy to distribute or traffic controlled substances

  • Involvement in large-scale drug operations or networks

  • Communication or association with known offenders

  • Surveillance or wiretap evidence used by federal agents

Because of the broad legal definition, many individuals are swept into conspiracy cases without clear proof of action. That’s why working with a knowledgeable drug conspiracy lawyer is essential.

We Defend Clients Accused Of:

  • Federal and state drug conspiracy charges

  • Drug trafficking and distribution offenses

  • Involvement with controlled substance rings

  • Possession with intent to distribute

  • Wiretap evidence, confidential informants, and DEA investigations

Whether you’re under investigation or have already been charged, our goal is to secure the best possible outcome — from dismissal to reduced charges or a not-guilty verdict.

Areas of Practice

DRUG CONSPIRACY FACTS AND REPERCUSSIONS

There are a wide range of drug charges that one can face. They are dependent on factors such as drug type, amount of the drug, and if the drug was being sold. The charges will either fall into a misdemeanor or a felony. Charges that fall into the misdemeanor category include simple possession (without intent to distribute), constructive possession (control over a person or place drugs were found or no physical presence at time drugs were found), and possession of drug paraphernalia. Charges that fall into the felony category include drug manufacturing (use of controlled substances to create illicit drugs) and drug trafficking.

 

Repercussions for being convicted of a misdemeanor drug crime can result in fines, probation, or a prison sentence. Being convicted of a felony drug crime can result in a sentence to prison depending on the severity on the charges. Due to a change in drug laws in 2009 New York State introduced the Judicial Diversion Program. This program allows for significantly reduced sentences if the defendant seeks drug treatment.

 

If you are charged with drug conspiracy make sure you contact a lawyer that's well equipped to handle drug cases. Careful examination of the evidence can lead to dismissal of charges or reduced sentences.
