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.

    "They were professional, attentive, and got me an acceptable settlement in a timely manner."
    I used them for a personal injury case. They were professional, attentive, and got me an acceptable settlement in a timely manner. This helped greatly to get me back on my feet financially. Thank you very much.

    "I give them 5-stars!"
    I have always been anti-lawyers, but I love this law firm. I give them 5-stars! The lawyer in my case was Nicole Carlucci and her assistant Brenda. They would always take the time to talk to me and help me to understand whatever questions I had. She actually cared about my situation and there aren't enough stars for them. Brenda was very helpful. I would most definitely use them again and I recommend them to anyone that wants someone to fight for you in court. Thank you!

    "He is a seasoned professional that is respected within the law community."

    I first met Jason Porter in 2003, when our children attended a Christian Preschool together. I saw what he did within our community. He helped many of the families from the preschool over the years so when it came time that my family needed a lawyer I chose him. Jason has helped my family and several of my personal friends, all with positive outcomes. He is a seasoned professional that is respected within the law community. You will be treated with the utmost respect and compassion. I don't know another lawyer of his caliber that offers free consultations and you speak to him personally. Pick Porter.

    "Aggressive and Compassionate. Highly Recommend."
    I'd been accused of something I did not do. My situation was a total nightmare. I consulted with Attorney Porter and he assured me that my tough situation could be handled. Attorney Gary Shumar tirelessly worked my case, while showing patience and empathy when I felt frustrated. Needless to say, my charges were dropped. I highly recommend this firm.

    "Nicole Carlucci is truly excellent in her profession."
    Attorney Nicole Carlucci was exactly what I needed. I chose her because she is professional, compassionate and fair. She explained everything to me and was really looking out for my best interests. She made herself available to hear all my concerns and questions. Ms. Carlucci made me aware of points that needed to be addressed that I didn’t know about. I would not have been able to get what was needed without her. She went above and beyond which is why I’m recommending her. In addition, she continued to support me with additional needs after the fact. Nicole Carlucci is truly excellent in her profession.
