International Drug Offense Defense Lawyers

International Drug Crimes

A drug crime accusation is serious in any case, but when the charge has occurred in another country, you face a complex legal issue in addition to a serious charge. International drug crime charges can be hard to defend and require the services of an extremely experienced international drug crime lawyer. Read on for more information on international drug crimes and your legal rights:

If you are accused of a drug crime while traveling or living abroad, you may be surprised at the severity of the charges. That’s because many countries do not distinguish between drug trafficking and drug possession. Simple possession can bring harsh penalties, and misunderstandings involving language and culture can exacerbate the problem and decrease your likelihood of being extradited to the United States or treated properly by the police. The penalties could involve years of incarceration in foreign prisons or other harsh sentences that can destroy your reputation and prevent you from participating in daily life.

Though the United States has laws that protect those taken into custody and prevent unwarranted search and seizure, many countries do not. You are required to abide by foreign laws when in foreign countries. However, with the help of an American international drug offense attorney with experience in international drug crimes accusations, you could be released from prison and allowed to enter the United States under an international treaty.

Finding out that you or a loved one has been accused of an international drug crime can be confusing, frightening, and extremely stressful. You deserve the support of an attorney with a long track record of success in his or her field and a proven reputation.
