Experienced Utah Drug Crimes Lawyer
It can happen so easily. You have a painful recovery from surgery and become dependent on Vicodin or other prescription drug to kill the pain. The bottle runs out and you need more for the pain. Your doctor refuses, so you go to another doctor. Perhaps you get one additional bottle, but it's not enough. Suddenly, you are shopping around for a cooperative doctor or forging prescription sheets to get the medication you need. You are trying to take care of your medical needs. The prosecutor is charging you with prescription fraud. Where do you turn for help?

Am I going to Jail?
I will do everything possible to have your case prosecuted in the Utah drug courts or mental health courts, rather than the criminal court system. The drug court offers the option of drug education or treatment program. Upon successful completion of a 'diversion program', your charges will be dismissed and you will avoid jail.
