Drug Offenses

Texas Drug Offense Attorney and Criminal Defense Lawyer

If you have been charged with a drug offense, you require aggressive criminal defense and thorough knowledge of the law from your attorney. At the Law Office of John L. Venza Jr. in Sugar Land, Texas, my background as a former Assistant District Attorney has provided me a first-hand account of how the State will prepare the case against you.

Do not wait until your arrest to contact my office. Even if you merely suspect you are being investigated on narcotics charges, the sooner you call me at 281-971-5660 to obtain legal representation the better chance of a favorable outcome.

Knowledge of the Process and Your Rights

During my tenure as Senior Prosecutor of felony District Court in the State of Texas, I received specialized training in successfully working up drug cases. I prosecuted cases involving drug possession, delivery, trafficking, and manufacturing. Specific cases have involved illegal substances such as:

  • Marijuana (Marihuana)
  • Cocaine
  • Methamphetamine (Meth)
  • Prescription Drug Abuse (Xanax, Oxycontin and Vicodin).

The U.S. and Texas Constitutions place significant restraints on police intrusions into people's homes, cars and property. My prosecutorial experience provided me on-the-job knowledge of the procedures the police must follow regarding search and seizure.

You deserve a lawyer who knows the opposition's limitations and will fight to make sure your rights are protected. Whether your case involves possession of marihuana, possession of a controlled substance, possession of a dangerous drug or any other drug offense, my in-depth knowledge allows me to push to legally suppress evidence when it is appropriate in cases involving:

  • Possession of a Controlled Substance
  • Delivery of a Controlled Substance
  • Possession of Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver
  • Manufacture or Delivery of a Controlled Substance

Network to Negotiate

One benefit of being a former prosecutor for the State of Texas is that I have cultivated working relationships with my now-former peers. At the Law Office of John L. Venza Jr., I believe that network is vital in negotiating the best possible deal or moving forward to have the State prove its case against you.

I recognize that not all clients require legal services during standard business hours. That is why I make myself available evenings and weekends. For more information or to schedule a free consultation at my office conveniently located off of Highway 59, please contact me.
