New York City Drug Crimes Lawyer Russ Kofman Explains the Different Types of Drug Crimes in New York

New York City drug crimes lawyer Russ Kofman (https://www.lebedinkofman.com/new-york-city-drug-crimes-lawyer/) explains the different types of drug crimes in New York. The lawyer mentions that New York is known for having some of the strictest drug laws in America. Anyone who is convicted of criminal drug possession and other controlled substances can face significant consequences. These consequences can have a life-long impact on a person’s life.

“Drug charges in New York can arise from a number of different scenarios. Drug possession, sale, and conspiracies involving drugs and other narcotics-related crimes are all dealt with in federal and New York courts. There are many drug crimes that carry maximum life sentences. Many cases have mandatory prison sentences, even for those who have only been charged with small quantities of drugs,” the New York City drug crimes lawyer says.

The lawyer mentions that one development in the drug laws in New York is that both state and federal law enforcement focuses on the drug possession and sale of pills like Vicodin, OxyContin, Codeine, and performance-enhancing drugs such as steroids and human growth hormones.

Attorney Russ Kofman adds that there are two headings for drug offenses in the New York Penal Code. These are marijuana offenses and controlled substances offenses. The possession, sale, and manufacture of controlled substances make up the majority of controlled substance offenses.

In the article, attorney Kofman says, “New York classifies crimes involving drugs based on the severity of each criminal offense, which takes into consideration, the type and class of controlled substance a person is in possession of, the intent of that person, and whether there was a sale of the controlled substance or drug, and the number of prior violations that person may have.”

Lastly, attorney Kofman emphasizes the importance of having a skilled drug crimes lawyer when facing drug-related charges. An experienced lawyer may be able to help the defendant understand their rights and protect their freedom.
