Above and beyond a simple possession charge, possession with intent to distribute is considered a much more serious crime for which you could be facing thousands of dollars in fines and serious prison time. Depending on the circumstances surrounding your arrest, a qualified criminal defense attorney like those at Jimeno & Gray with experience in drug related cases can help you to make sure your rights are protected.

When determining whether a person possessed drugs with the intent to distribute the court will look at a number of factors, including the amount of drugs, how they were packaged. In addition, the court will take into consideration if other items such as baggies, scales and large amounts of money were found at the same location as the defendant.
