Prescription Fraud A Defense You Can Trust

Atlanta Prescription Fraud Lawyer

Defense from Our Atlanta Drug Crime Attorney

With the demand for prescription drugs on the rise, prescription fraud is increasingly becoming a popular drug crime. Prescription fraud is the crime of using theft, forgery, or deceptive methods to obtain a prescription. This can include stealing another person's prescription, forging a doctor's signature to obtain a prescription, pretending to be someone else to get a prescription, using false identification to obtain a prescription, altering a prescription, or trying to obtain the same prescription from multiple doctors.

There are many reasons why people commit prescription fraud. Maybe they want to resell a popular drug to make a large profit, such as Vicodin and OxyContin. Maybe they want to use the chemicals in the drugs to manufacture another type of drug. Or maybe they just want to obtain the drugs for their own pleasure, as is often the case with drugs like Valium, Morphine, Demerol, and Xanax.

Understanding the Charges Against You

Whether you committed prescription fraud for your own personal gain or for someone else, the penalties for such a crime are severe. The judges and prosecutors have no tolerance for people who commit prescription fraud in Atlanta and will do everything possible to ensure you are punished for your actions. Because prescription fraud is a felony offense, the penalties for such a crime will be severe. Incarceration, steep fines, community service, and long probation are just some of the legal ramifications you will face.

If you are a practicing doctor or physician, you may lose your medical license, which as you know will be incredibly damaging to your career. Furthermore, if you are found in unlawful possession of prescription drugs, you can also be charged with drug possession, which will result in additional penalties.
