CRIMINAL DEFENCEDrug Crimes

Pushing Back Against Drug Charges

The legal system in South Carolina is very unforgiving for people convicted of drug crimes,
especially those with multiple convictions. But at Burn Law Firm, LLC, we know that facing drug charges does not mean that you are a bad person, or even that you committed a crime. Remember that you are innocent in the eyes of the law until proven guilty.

Our goal is to protect your rights and ensure that you get the strongest defense possible. Give us a call today for a free consultation about your particular situation. Based in Lexington, we serve clients in the Columbia area and across the Midlands.

 

What Charges Are You Facing

We represent people accused of crimes involving “street drugs” like marijuana, cocaine, crack,
methamphetamine and heroin, as well as offenses involving prescription drugs and pharmaceuticals. We have successfully defended clients against charges of:

  • Possession
  • Distribution
  • Trafficking
  • Possession with intent to distribute

In this system, it is essential that you seek the counsel of an experienced criminal defenselawyer who is familiar with drug crimes defense. Chip Burn has extensive experience with drug crimes, and he will protect and assert your rights in this difficult situation.

 

Consequences If You Are Convicted

Over the past few decades, the state of South Carolina has seen prison sentences and other
consequences for drug-related offenses become more and more severe. In addition to mandatory minimum prison sentences for certain crimes, you may face collateral consequences like:

  • Loss of driving privileges
  • Forfeiture of assets like your car or cash
  • Mandatory drug treatment programs
  • Loss of education loans
  • A criminal record, which can prevent you from getting the job you want

Chip Burn is a former solicitor for the 11th Judicial Circuit, where he tried many cases involving illegal drugs. He knows firsthand how prosecutors pursue these charges and how to maximize your chances of success in the justice system.
