Types of Drug Cases We Handle

In Texas, there are different levels of punishment based on what drug was involved and how it was abused. 

We frequently take on cases involving: 

• Schedule 1 drugs (Marijuana, Heroin, Crystal Methamphetamine, LSD, Crack Cocaine) - these are punished more strictly than Schedules 2-5
• Schedule 2 drugs (cocaine, morphine, oxycodone - some accepted medical use)
• Schedule 3, 4, and 5 drugs (codeine, Xanax, Valium) 
• Drug Possession
• Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
• Possession With Intent to Sell
• Drug Trafficking
• Driving Under the Influence of Drugs
• Prescription Drug Fraud
• Manufacturing of Illegal Substances
• Conspiracy to Sell Drugs
• Operation of a Methamphetamine Laboratory
• Sale of Illegal Substances in a School Zone
• And more! 

No matter how challenging your case seems, how serious the penalties are, or how hopeless you may feel, there’s always hope - you are innocent until proven guilty, and our team is on your side. 

At BRCK, We Stand Out As Your Top Choice.

There are a number of defense firms in Texas who handle drug cases, but we have over 50 years of combined experience and have helped over 5,000 people. 

Here are a few other reasons why we believe you should choose our tenacious Round Rock drug charge defense attorneys to defend your future and your freedom! 

We’re 100% Focused on Criminal Defense - 

Criminal defense is all we do. Other firms may do criminal defense and family law and/or immigration law and/or personal injury and/or something else; their attention is divided and criminal defense may not be their strength. You can trust that we spend all our time on defense, and as a result, we’re great at it! 

Every Partner Is a Former Prosecutor or Judge - 

Because we’ve been on the other side of the courtroom, we know how the other side works; because we’ve been in the judge’s chair, we know what it takes to construct the most persuasive defense possible. This is an important level of knowledge that can benefit you! 

We Simplify The Complex -

You shouldn’t need a law degree to understand what’s happening to you. Our goal is to break it down for you in order to give you all of the information you need to make smart decisions and to give you peace of mind during what we know is a scary, confusing time. 

We Update You & We’re Available to You - 

Some criminal defense attorneys are so busy (or have such a lack of concern for their clients as real people) that they don't call their clients back. Our Round Rock drug charge defense attorneys send you regular updates about what’s going on in your case and any other helpful information. Someone is always available to talk to you nights, weekends, or whenever you have questions! 

You & Your Experience Matter to Us - 

The outcome of your case is clearly important, but so is your journey through the system, and we endeavor to make that as smooth and stress-free as we possibly can. Our team will treat you with dignity and compassion as we guide you every step of the way. 

We Are Focused on Getting Results - 

We aren’t just attorneys who show up to court in a suit with good intentions - we do everything we can to win, and we rely on processes and systems to increase the likelihood of that happening. 

We Offer Payment Plans - 

Fighting drug charges isn’t something you budgeted for, and many people facing drug charges are already struggling financially. We offer payment plans because we believe everyone deserves a strong defense, regardless of ability to pay, and we also offer discounts for military servicemembers and students! 

We’ve Been Recognized For Excellence - 

You don’t have to take our word about ourselves - our reviews, awards, and case results speak for themselves. BRCK Defense belongs to the National Trial Lawyers Top 100, was awarded Best San Antonio Lawyers 2021, Best DUI Attorneys in San Antonio 2023, and has been repeatedly awarded with the S.A. Scene Best San Antonio Lawyers Awards. 

Constructing a Defense For Your Drug Charges

Our Round Rock drug charge defense attorneys work relentlessly to protect your rights. 

Sometimes that means getting a case dismissed entirely by showing that the traffic stop was not conducted legally. Drug arrests are common after a traffic stop for an unrelated offense (like a brake light being out, or speeding). But police officers are required to have probable cause or consent before searching your vehicle. If we can challenge or prove that they didn’t have probable cause or consent - and if you did not give the officer permission to search your vehicle - we can fight the prosecution to get the whole case thrown out. 

If this is not an option, we can argue that:

• you have a valid prescription (or believed you did),

• the drugs did not belong to you, 

• the evidence was mishandled or the chain of custody was broken,

• you did not intend to commit the crime, 

• the police coerced you into committing the offense (entrapment), or 

• another defense! 

We also make efforts to place clients in rehabilitation programs in lieu of incarceration, if that is an option. Every case is unique, but you can trust that our firm will use the most effective strategies to resolve yours!

Frequently Asked Questions About Drug Charges

Will I go to jail for drug charges?

It depends - both on the seriousness of the charges against you and on the quality of your representation/defense. 

For misdemeanor drug crimes (like low-level possession), Texas offers a diversion program for first-time offenders, which would allow you to complete a substance abuse program instead of jail time. 

However, for felony drug crimes (like trafficking or manufacturing), or if you have prior convictions, or if the crime involved a weapon, you are looking at jail time - potentially, many years in jail - if you are convicted. That makes it all the more important to work with a good attorney. 

Can I get drug charges expunged from my record?

Expungement means that the charges would no longer appear on your criminal record, but it is extremely difficult to be granted an expungement and can only happen under certain circumstances. However, recent changes to the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure § 55.01 have expanded eligibility for expungement, allowing more cases than ever to qualify in Texas. 

Because of the update, Class A and B misdemeanors and felony charges are eligible for expungement if:

• You were arrested, but never formally charged
• Your case was dismissed due to an expired statute of limitations 
• You were acquitted
• You were convicted but later found Not Guilty
• You were pardoned. 

Class C misdemeanors can be expunged after you complete a deferred disposition if you weren’t convicted of a felony in the five years before your arrest. 

Again, expungement is far from a given, even if these circumstances apply to you - contact BRCK and we’ll let you know about your options and realistic chances of success!

I was arrested for drug charges - what happens now?

Criminal proceedings officially start with your arraignment. During this process, you’ll appear before a judge or magistrate who will explain the charges and request your plea. Your plea is your official response to the charges and typically includes these options:

• Guilty
• Not Guilty
• No Contest

In most cases, you would ideally enter a Not Guilty plea which would allow you to challenge the charges, but in some cases, your attorney may enter into a pre-negotiated plea agreement with the prosecutor if they feel it is in your best interests. 

It’s important to contact an attorney BEFORE your arraignment, but if you find yourself being arraigned and you have not yet had time to consult with an attorney, we recommend entering a Not Guilty plea.
