Naperville College Student Drug Crimes Attorney

Let Us Protect Your Future

Students often experiment with drugs. Unfortunately, when they are caught, they must face the serious consequences of drug charges. If you are a student charged with drug possession — or a parent of a student facing drug charges — you should not place your case in the hands of an inexperienced attorney.

The DuPage County college student drug crimes attorney at the Law Office of Philip R. Nathe has more than 30 years of experience in the criminal justice system and has practiced criminal defense since 1990. Our team understands how to provide a strong defense against drug charges as well as the specific issues that students face when they are charged with drug possession.

Harsh Consequences for a Drug Conviction

The consequences of a conviction for charges related to marijuana, opiates, or other illegal drugs such as cocaine or methamphetamine can affect you now and in the future. Like others charged with drug crimes, students face the possibility of fines, probation, and jail or prison time. But, as a student, you may also face some potential consequences that make it difficult to complete your education, such as:

• You may be unable to obtain federal grants, student loans, and other funding to pay for your education.
• In addition to your criminal charges, your college or university may impose sanctions on you.

If you are convicted, you may have a permanent criminal record that can create difficulties finding employment and housing. In short, a drug conviction can have a serious impact on your future.
