San Francisco Prescription Fraud Attorneys
If you have been arrested or are currently under investigation for prescription fraud in the San Francisco Bay area it is critical that you seek legal advice immediately. An experienced San Francisco prescription fraud attorney can help fight the charges that you face immediately in the effort to avoid court altogether. A prescription fraud violation will typically involve both drug possession and fraud charges.
A person will face either misdemeanor or a felony offense depending on the type of drug, amount of drug and a person’s intent. When a person is found to have large quantities of drugs with the intent to sell they can expect even more serious penalties if convicted. In addition, if a person counterfeits or forges a prescription to obtain drugs they can face additional counterfeiting and/or forgery charges.
