Strong Defense for Counterfeit Substance Charges in NY

If you are facing charges for the possession or sale of counterfeit or synthetic drugs, you might not know what your rights are or what penalties you could receive if you are convicted. Drug charges, especially for designer drugs, can be complicated since their use or sale could be dangerous to others. You need to contact a criminal defense lawyer with a track record of aggressive representation for their clients. The law firm of Raiser & Kenniff, PC understands that you need to avoid a conviction in a drug case. They will review the circumstances surrounding your arrest and go over your defense in order to fight for your rights if the case goes to court. The experience of the criminal defense team means that you have someone on your side that can defend you and pursue the best possible outcome in your case.

What Does the Law Say?

Legislation outlines the definition of a counterfeit substance in 21 USCS § 802 in specific detail. In summary, a counterfeit substance is a fraudulently produced controlled substance, such as a prescription. A reasonable person would believe that the substance is not fake because it has been made to appear like the real prescription. In addition to fake prescriptions, the drug crime lawyers at our office can represent clients who have been accused of possession or sale of counterfeit drugs, such as drugs that seem to be cocaine or heroin, synthetic bath salts, fake marijuana or synthetic steroids.

Client Testimonials

Our Clients Rave About Their Results
  • Highly Recommend

    “I have had the good fortune of having Steven provide me with legal counsel throughout some very difficult legal circumstances. Not only is he an exceptional attorney, but he is a truly exceptional person. His steadfast guidance and support has helped me get through one of the most difficult years of my life. I have full confidence in his ability to defend my rights, and ensure I’m given the just opportunity I deserve. Steven and his team are exactly who you want in your corner should you ever find yourself in the unfortunate position of being caught up in our legal system. I believe there are people who go into this line of work for the paycheck, and then I believe there are people who do it in pursuit of justice and equity; Steven is the latter and I count my blessings everyday that I can count on him to help me navigate a very challenging legal situation. I strongly recommend Steven should you find yourself in need of legal services. You will not find a more compassionate and professional attorney.”

  • They were always available quickly, to address my concerns. Having dealt with some law firms before, I really appreciated this.

    “Steven Raiser's law firm handled my case with excellence throughout the process. I had a SBA EIDL loan that got transferred to the Department of Treasury unexpectedly, and had a 30% penalty added to the amount due, and due very quickly, which was very stressful. After talking with Steven Raiser, and working with Harry Gill, who was absolutely brilliant in working with me and preparing the case, they were able to recall the case to the SBA. They were always available quickly, to address my concerns. Having dealt with some law firms before, I really appreciated this.
    Very grateful and appreciative to Steven Raiser and Harry Gill. Great work”

Synthetic Drugs

Synthetic drugs might be even more dangerous than their original counterparts. In some cases, possession or sale of these drugs could even result in federal charges. The criminal justice system enforces strict sanctions against offenders because of the possible dangers of these drugs. If you or a family member or loved one face drug charges, you will not want to battle the legal system on your own. Our NYC criminal attorney can represent you throughout the court process.
