Methamphetamine Charges

Phoenix Drug Charge Defense

If you're reading this page, chances are good that either you or someone close to you has recently been arrested on charges involving the use, possession or sale of methamphetamines. Also known as speed, crank, crystal meth, ice or just plain "meth" — the name doesn't matter.

What does matter is that the use and manufacture of methamphetamine is taken very seriously by law enforcement and the courts. To improve your chances of avoiding conviction — contact Billar & Donald, P.C. in Phoenix, Arizona, today.

Experienced Arizona Criminal Defense Lawyers

At Billar & Donald, we defend clients against felony and misdemeanor drug charges in Maricopa County and throughout the state. Although we represent clients charged with marijuana, cocaine, heroin, illegal prescription drugs and other controlled substance crimes, charges involving methamphetamines are more common. And because of Arizona's tough stance on them, they are often more complicated as well. Contact our office if you've been arrested for and charged with:

• Possession of methamphetamines
• Sale of methamphetamines
• Meth trafficking or distribution
• Meth manufacturing
• Conspiracy to sell, distribute or manufacture meth

In our experience, the majority of people charged with these crimes are addicts who need help rather than hardened criminals who need jail. The law and the courts have recognized this to some extent and have made drug treatment and diversion programs available to certain offenders. Wherever possible, we'll raise issues such as probable cause, police involvement in entrapment, illegal search and seizure, or "actual possession" to help you avoid conviction or to get the charges against you reduced and pursue more helpful options.
