Fast, Effective Defense For Kansas Drug Crimes

A charge for possession or distribution of controlled substances – marijuana, methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin – needs immediate action. Drug cases carry some of the harshest penalties of any criminal offense in Kansas. When you are facing such steep potential prison sentences, you need someone like me, RW Mozingo, II, who has the experience to protect your liberty.

I established my law firm to give Johnson County residents experienced criminal defense. When you work with me at The Mozingo Law Firm, LLC, you get hands-on help from a trial-tested litigator. I am ready to face a judge or jury if it means protecting your rights in a serious criminal drug case.

Battle-Tested Experience In Litigation And Prosecution

I served in the drug unit for the last three years when I was in the Johnson County District Attorney’s office. During that time, I not only tried many criminal cases but also dealt with novel issues in the drug world like synthetic cannabinoids (K2) and bath salts, as well as other synthetic compounds.

Trials for the manufacturing of methamphetamine and cultivation of marijuana are prominent on my resume, as are cases involving driving while drugged. This is important as the charges carry presumptive prison sentences, and if you want the possibility of probation, immediate action is required. In addition to my vast trial qualifications, I served as the interim section chief of the drug unit. This level of experience is second to none for a drug defense lawyer.

The Importance Of Acting Quickly

Acting immediately is very important, especially if the police have seized property or money from you. Failure to act quickly may lead to losing your property and money with no possibility of having them returned. However, immediate action can result in the return of your property.

Answers To Common Drug Crime Questions

Every drug charge and related criminal case is unique. However, there are some common issues and questions people have when they are in this situation:

What are some differences in charges between major drugs?

Drug offenses vary significantly depending on the type of drug involved. For example, possession of marijuana can result in less severe penalties compared to possession of cocaine or heroin. The classification of the drug (Schedule I, II, III, etc.) is a key factor in determining the severity of the charge and potential sentences.

What charges come with possession, distribution, etc.?

Drug-related offenses typically fall into categories such as possession, possession with intent to distribute, distribution, manufacturing and trafficking. Possession charges are generally less severe than distribution or trafficking charges. The quantity of drugs involved also plays a crucial role in determining the specific charge and potential penalties.

Which drug charges are easier to rectify?

Generally, first-time offenses for simple possession of small amounts of drugs may be easier to address through diversionary programs, plea bargains or treatment options. However, every case is unique, and the ease of resolving a charge depends on various factors, including the specific circumstances, the defendant’s criminal history and the prosecutor’s approach.
