Aggressive Defense for Possession, Sale & Other Drug Offenses in Florida

According to 893.13 of the Florida Statues, "it is unlawful for any person to sell, manufacture, or deliver, or possess with intent to sell, manufacture, or deliver, a controlled substance."

Drug charges and penalties will differ depending on the type of drug (classified by schedules) as well as the specific type of drug crime. Drugs are classified by "schedules" according to the Florida Statutes as well as the United States Controlled Substances Act.

  • Schedule I drug charges are by far the most serious drug offenses.
  • Schedule II and Schedule III are less serious, but may still warrant time in prison and fines upon conviction.
  • Examples of Schedule I drugs are LSD, heroin and marijuana while a Schedule II drug would be cocaine or methamphetamine.

Jacksonville police are cracking down hard on these offenses, so if you were recently arrested, make sure you have a strong advocate on your side. A Jacksonville drug crime lawyer from Jason K.S. Porter, P.A. can fight against your charges so you get the justice you deserve.

    "Although I hope to never need their services again, if I do, I will definitely be giving them a call."
    First and foremost, everyone from staff to the attorneys are all great!! I first started with the firm in 2015 and due to my own circumstances, I was unable to complete the needed court requirements in order to finalize my case. The amount I paid to retain an attorney was placed in a trust and they assured me it would be there until I completed my requirements. 4 years later they kept their word and finalized my case once I completed my needed court requirement. Everything was professional and in a timely fashion on their behalf. They also found a second issue that needed to be resolved and also completed that for me. Although I hope to never need their services again, if I do, I will definitely be giving them a call. Thank you, everyone!

    "Excellent attorneys and staff"
    My family has worked with Mr. Porter several times over the years. Each of our experiences were different but the outcome was the same. We all had extremely positive results. I have referred many friends and family to Mr. Porter for assistance, and I will continue to highly recommend the firm to anyone in need of legal services.

    "If I could give 10 stars, I would"
    If I could give 10 stars, I would. I was blessed to have selected first, from a long list of lawyers, Jason Porter. From our first meeting, Jason was kind, comforting, and non-judgmental. Jason and his team fought long and hard for me, and our outcome was as predicted, far better than I was expecting considering my initial circumstances. A heart felt Thank You to Jason, Jonathan, and Darlene.
