Virginia Student Drug Attorney

1. VIRGINIA STUDENT DRUG ATTORNEY For students who are still trying to get the education and training to have a bright future, it’s essential to have a VA student drug lawyer by your side to fight your charges. Controlled substances are regulated by the Commonwealth of Virginia under the Virginia drug control act and under federal law under the Controlled Substances Act. Violations of Federal law Usually, students accused of violating drug laws are prosecuted under state law; however, in larger cases, and in particular where interstate sales occur, students may be prosecuted in federal court under federal law. Federal law sets penalties for first offenses of drug law violations ranging from one year to life imprisonment and/or $1,000 to $4 million in fines. Risks to Students From Possession Charges It’s important to have an assertive VA student drug lawyer who can protect students charged with violating drug laws. Although students are young and tend to lack the emotional maturity to fully understand the risks involved in using and possession drugs, they are still punished harshly for the violation of drug laws. As long as a student is 18 years old, they are treated the same as any non-student adult.
