Criminal Lawyers Melbourne

In Victoria, drug offences can be tried and punished under either state drug laws, or federal drug laws.

In the case of trafficking (which can include possession for sale), the particular charge will depend on the type of drug, and whether it is a simple trafficking charge, or trafficking in a commercial quantity or large commercial quantity. The laws are complicated, and it is important to get specialist criminal lawyers involved.

Contact us now to discuss your drug trafficking charges and the circumstances which have led to these issues. We will review your drug case carefully, and it is important for us to be fully briefed on what has led to the police becoming involved in the first place, whether the investigative conduct is legal and appropriate, and other circumstances relevant to determining whether there are any defences to the charge, whether the matter needs to go to court, and what are the likely penalties.
