Ocean County Drug Charge Attorneys

Ocean County Superior Court and the surrounding municipal courts adjudicate thousands of drug charges each year. Drug crimes are extremely serious events that result in jail, criminal records, steep fines and penalties, and tarnished reputations. New Jersey state and municipal police officers actively patrol and investigate for potential suspects in possession or actively distributing marijuana, cocaine, heroin and prescription drugs such as Oxycontin, Percocet, and Ritalin. New Jersey is currently in the midst of a heroin epidemic, and Ocean County is “Ground Zero.” State and local authorities have devoted vast amounts of taxpayer dollars to task force and undercover police operations in the hope of alleviating the problem and finding the distributors of heroin and prescription drugs. Depending upon the type and quantity of the drug and the circumstances of the arrest, drug cases may be handled in Ocean County Superior Court or the township or borough municipal court where the offense occurred. McGuckin Law understands the complexities involved with drug charges in the Ocean County Superior Court system as well as each municipal court. We handle all manner of drug offenses including:

• Jackson Marijuana Possession
• Brick Heroin Possession in a School Zone
• Toms River Possession of Marijuana with Intent to Distribute
• Manchester CDS in a Motor Vehicle
• Ship Bottom Drug Paraphernalia
