Drug Offences

At Fisher legal our team of criminal defence lawyers are experienced in representing clients in a wide range of drug offences including trafficking, importation, manufacturing, possession with intent to sell and supply, simple possession and cultivation.

‍

The weight of the drug or number of plants will determine whether the drug charges are dealt with in the Magistrate or District Court jurisdiction. The penalties differ significantly, therefore our team at Fisher Legal will where possible do all that we can to ensure your matter remains in the lower jurisdiction. This often requires extensive negotiations with the police and the prosecution.

‍

There are a number of important matters that you need to be aware of therefore it is essential you speak with one of our defence lawyers as soon as possible.

All drug offences are serious with some carrying a maximum penalty of 25 years of imprisonment therefore if you have been charged with any drug related offence, please call our office on (08) 9328 2899 (Perth) or (08) 9129 4416 (Broome).
