Drug Charges in Skagit County

While drug crime laws in Washington state are currently in flux, with the Washington Supreme Court striking down the state’s drug possession statute in early 2021, the state still criminalizes the possession, sale, distribution, and trafficking of illegal substances, including: 

• Heroin
• Cocaine
• Ecstasy
• Methamphetamine
• LSD
• PCP

Current law and bills that have been recently introduced by lawmakers mean the potential penalties for drug convictions are dependent on the circumstances of the arrest, including if a weapons or minor were involved in the crime, if the defendant has a prior criminal history, and other mitigating factors. Lawmakers are also trending towards favoring treatment and rehabilitation over incarceration, especially when it comes to minor drug crimes, but that only goes so far. Felony drug charges can still result in prison sentences, large fines, and a criminal record that could follow you for the rest of your life. 

There is no question that if you want to protect your future, the first step is to seek the help of a skilled drug crime defense attorney that is dedicated to you, your case, and your freedom. Mountain Law will work hard to uncover the evidence of your case and tailor a defense strategy focused on getting you the results you need using the full extent of the law and our considerable experience.
