Prescription fraud is one of various ways by which legal drugs are illegally obtained or distributed. Did your drug crime charges come about in one of the following ways?
- You are a doctor who wrote phony prescriptions for yourself or for someone else.
- You are a healthcare provider who stole a doctor's prescription pad and wrote phony prescriptions using his name.
- You are a patient who altered a legitimate prescription in your name, allowing you to obtain 100 pills instead of 10, for example.
- You obtained prescription narcotics by faking symptoms or by "doctor shopping."
However it happened that you were accused and arrested for obtaining an improper prescription or distributing pain medication, your legal prospects are critical. The sooner you take action to find and work with a zealous criminal defense lawyer, the greater are your chances of obtaining a favorable outcome in your case, such as dismissal of charges, reduction of charges, reduction of penalties or acquittal at trial. For best results, consult with a lawyer while your case is still in an investigation stage — before charges have been formally filed.
If that is not possible, rest assured that our Orlando prescription fraud defense lawyers are prepared to defend you in Florida, circuit and appellate courts, U.S. federal district courts, courts of appeals, and the U.S. Supreme Court, depending on how far your case goes in the court systems.
