What is drug supply?

The supply of a prohibited drug is one of the most serious drug offences. Penalties for Supplying prohibited drugs vary widely depending on the type of drug and the quantity of drug the charge relates to but can include imprisonment of 2 years to up to life in prison.  

Our clients include members of large commercial drug enterprises, dial-a-dealer drivers, and first-time offenders charged with one-off supplies. Our criminal lawyers know how to beat drug supply charges. We have had drug supply charges dismissed without convictions and without our clients being sentenced to prison.

We get the best result for you whether you are charged with a smaller supply offence, like selling MDMA to friends at a music festival, or a serious drug offence, like supplying a large commercial quantity of ice.

What is drug importation?

Importing drugs into Australia is a Commonwealth offence.  

Importation cases vary significantly in strength. Our lawyers know how to beat charges based on circumstantial and unreliable evidence. Our criminal lawyers tear into co-accused informants who roll on their friends and associates to save their own skin. We attack police experts who interpret conversations as being codes for importation. We challenge visual and voice identifications of people that police claim to be our clients. 

If our clients plead guilty, we get them the most lenient sentences. 

Can I get bail for drug offences?

Bail applications are high stakes because if unsuccessful, a person may stay in prison for weeks, months or years, waiting for their case to finalise. This is especially the case for drug charges, which are often lengthy, involve multiple co-accused, and have voluminous briefs of evidence.

Australian Criminal Law Group has a team of lawyers who are experienced with bail applications for drug offences. Our drug lawyers are well-versed in the requirements for a successful bail application, the supporting information needed, and how to present the supporting evidence to ensure the application’s success.
