Prescription Drug Crimes
Common examples of prescription drug fraud include forging or altering a prescription and "doctor shopping" — obtaining the same prescription from multiple doctors.
Prescription fraud charges often involve the following prescription drugs:
- OxyContin
- Vicodin
- Percocet
- Valium
- Demerol
- Morphine
- Codeine
- Adderall
- Xanax
We represent individuals accused of illegally obtaining prescription drugs as well as doctors, pharmacists and other medical professionals accused of illegally dispensing controlled substances.
Oftentimes, those accused of prescription drug crimes started using prescription drugs as part of their medical treatment, and became addicted to the substance. Whatever circumstances lead to your arrest or accusation, we understand and are dedicated to protecting your rights.
