Drug Crime Sentences

Will I go to Jail?

Phoenix, Arizona, Lawyers Protect Your Freedom

When people have been arrested for drug crimes in Arizona, their most common question is "Will I go to jail?" While it is impossible to predict the future, we can help you understand the potential sentences associated with a conviction. We'll also work hard to minimize those sentences — or help you avoid them altogether.

The Arizona Sentencing Chart

Arizona law has created a sentencing chart that outlines potential consequences for a wide range of drug crimes. Looking at the Arizona Sentencing Chart can be confusing and stressful. As experienced lawyers, we can help you understand.

We are the team of experienced criminal defense attorneys at the Phoenix, Arizona, law offices of Cates, Hanson, Sargeant & Schoenau. With 100 years of combined experience, we have the skill and knowledge to help you achieve the best possible results.

We do this by fighting hard for you. We explore all the facts and laws involved in your drug charge. Was the search legal? Were you interrogated in violation of your rights? If the police did wrong, we hold them accountable. And we always ask the court to not allow illegally-gotten evidence to be used against you in court.

The best way to avoid a long jail sentence is to never have charges filed against you in the first place. But if charges have already been filed, you still have options. At Cates, Hanson, Sargeant & Schoenau, we have a history of getting clients acquitted, getting charges dropped to lesser-included offenses, and successfully arguing for lesser sentences. Focused on protecting your freedom, we strive for the best possible results in every case.

If you're asking yourself, "Will I go to jail?", you should be talking with a lawyer. Talk with the attorneys at Cates, Hanson, Sargeant & Schoenau by contacting us at 480-620-8568 or toll free during business hours at 877-229-9508.
