Los Angeles Drug Sales Lawyer

Handling Drug Possession with Intent to Sell Cases

Possessing or buying illegal drugs with the intent to sell them is a crime in California. It does not have to be proven that the drugs were actually sold, just that the defendant intended to do so. No money need change hands between a seller and a buyer for the defendant in this offense to be convicted. Intent to sell is shown by evidence of such things as drug packaging materials, scales, cutting utensils, alleged customers coming and going to your home or "place of business" at random hours, or by police informants, undercover agents, or telephone conversations that are wiretapped.

The charge of drug possession with intent to sell is a much more serious charge than simple possession. The individual may be charged with a misdemeanor or felony, based on the type of drug, quantity involved, whether minors were solicited, whether the individual has prior drug convictions, and his or her criminal background.
