An arrest for a drug-related crime can be a very frightening experience. Some people are falsely accused of drug crimes, and others are simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

At Hennessy Law Group, our Bakersfield drug crime attorney is here to help you through your legal difficulties and get you the best possible outcome for your case.

Drug Crimes in California

California takes drug crimes very seriously. A conviction for a drug-related crime can result in a permanent criminal record, strict probationary terms, hefty fines, and even prison time. The penalties for a drug crime conviction depend on the type of drug involved and the amount, as well as the type of offense. For example, a simple drug possession charge can result in a misdemeanor conviction and up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine. More serious offenses, such as manufacturing or selling drugs, are felonies and carry much harsher penalties.
