Drug Crimes

Albany County Felony Drug Charge Defense Lawyer Brian E. Donohue…

...Because Serious Charges Demand a Strong Defense

Even for possession of small amounts of illegal drugs, penalties can be severe and even include jail time. For more serious crimes like trafficking and intent to distribute, you could be facing years in prison. At the law office of Brian E. Donohue, we have successfully defended clients from federal drug charges involving some of the largest quantities of drugs ever recorded in Troy County.

Don't leave your fate in the hands of an already over-burdened public defender - contact drug crime defense attorney Brian E. Donohue today. Attorney Donohue has 23 years of experience focusing his practice almost exclusively in criminal defense. A highly skilled trial lawyer, he can aggressively defend you in court for charges related to all kinds of illicit substances:

  • Cocaine
  • Crack cocaine
  • Ecstasy
  • Heroin
  • Meth
  • Marijuana

The Harsh Penalties of Possession and Distribution

When compared to violent crimes, drug penalties seem unreasonably severe. For possession of even a small amount of cocaine (enough for 3 people) you can be facing prison time. In contrast, penalties for charges of DWI or domestic violence only result in jail time under extreme circumstances. In addition, if you plan to go to college, being convicted of even the smallest drug-related offense makes you automatically ineligible for federal student loans.

It's essential that you put forth a strong defense, and that you contact an attorney to start looking out for your best interests immediately. To set up an appointment, contact the law office of Brian E. Donohue today.
