Drug Violations

Unlawful Searches Are Common In Drug Arrests

Arrested for suspicion of possession of a controlled substance? Texas drug laws are continually changing, and you need aggressive advocacy if you are facing drug charges.

Enhanced Penalties Apply For Drug-Free Zone Arrests

Texas imposes enhanced penalties for drug violations occurring in zones near schools, churches, playgrounds and other places where children gather. These zones are not always clearly marked in the suburban areas of Sugar Land and Houston, however strict the penalties.

Do not attempt to defend yourself if you have been arrested in one of these zones. Contact Vik at The Law Office of Vikram Vij, P.L.L.C., to work with a knowledgeable drug violations lawyer if you are facing drug charges such as:

  • Manufacture and delivery of cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, marijuana, pills, Xanax, Fentanyl, morphine, codeine, OxyContin, PCP, methamphetamine, MDMA, synthetic marijuana, THC oil, or edibles such as THC gummies
  • Possession with intent to deliver drugs

There are several classifications of drugs, each with penalties depending on the quantity found in your possession at the time of arrest.
