"The Right Man to Keep You Out of the Wrong Place"
Prescription fraud criminal charges are most often filed against people suffering from chronic pain and serious medical problems. Though legal consequences for drug charges can be severe, alleged violators of prescription medication laws often experience leniency from the court system when working with a thoroughly prepared criminal defense attorney because:
- The accused is often facing his or her first criminal offence
- Prescription fraud rates low in the courts' "culpability index" because no one was injured or suffered significant loss because of the alleged crime
- The courts tend to be lenient on defendants driven to commit crimes because of excessive physical pain
If you face charges of prescription drug fraud, contact the Law Offices of Richard P. Arnold for experienced legal help and a skilled, thoroughly prepared defense. Lawyer Richard Arnold has practiced criminal law for almost 40 years, both as a prosecutor and as a criminal defense attorney.
