Ellis County and Navarro County Drug Paraphernalia Lawyer
Providing Exceptional Legal Services to Clients in Navarro County & Ellis County
Drug paraphernalia is a term used to describe any equipment, product, or material that is used to plant, propagate, cultivate, grow, harvest, manufacture, compound, convert, produce, process, test, analyze, pack, repack, store, contain, conceal, inject, ingest, inhale, or otherwise introduce a controlled substance into the human body. It is illegal to use, possess, or sell drug paraphernalia in Texas.
While drug paraphernalia charges are less severe than drug possession or drug trafficking charges, a conviction can still result in fines, probation, and a criminal record that can make it difficult to find a job, secure housing, or obtain certain professional licenses.

Our drug paraphernalia lawyer in Ellis County and Navarro County is here to help you fight the charges and protect your rights.
