Chandler Prescription Drug Fraud Lawyer

Prescription fraud is a common drug crime in Arizona. The act of obtaining a prescription-only drug through the use of a forged, fraudulent, or invalid prescription is a crime under A.R.S. 13-3406.

A person shall not knowingly:

  • Possess or use a prescription-only drug unless the person obtains the prescription-only drug pursuant to a valid prescription of a prescriber who is licensed pursuant to title 32, chapter 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 21, 25 or 29 or is similarly licensed in another state.
  • Unless the person holds a license or a permit issued pursuant to title 32, chapter 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 25 or 29, possess a prescription-only drug for sale.
  • Unless the person holds a license or a permit issued pursuant to title 32, chapter 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 25, or 29, possess equipment and chemicals for the purpose of manufacturing a prescription-only drug.
  • Unless the person holds a license or a permit issued pursuant to title 32, chapter 18, manufacture a prescription-only drug.
  • Administer a prescription-only drug to another person whose possession or use of the prescription-only drug violates this section.
  • Obtain or procure the administration of a prescription-only drug by fraud, deceit, misrepresentation, or subterfuge.
  • Unless the person is authorized, transport for sale, import into this state or offer to transport for sale or import into this state, sell, transfer, or offer to sell or transfer a prescription-only drug.
  • Possess or use a misbranded drug.
  • Manufacture, sell or distribute a misbranded drug.

A person who violates:

  • Subsection A, paragraph 9 of this section is guilty of a class 4 felony.
  • Subsection A, paragraph 2 or 7 of this section is guilty of a class 6 felony.
  • Subsection A, paragraph 1, 3, 4, 5 or 6 of this section is guilty of a class 1 misdemeanor.
  • Subsection A, paragraph 8 of this section is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor.

In addition, there are also fines, community service, as well as other penalties that may be accessed.

This crime usually involves falsified or forged information in order to obtain a prescription. Although prescription fraud crimes may not be quite as serious as some other drug crimes, you could still be facing jail or prison time, and a criminal conviction on your record.

Hello Mr. Victor, I've been on the A.O.R program since Aug 2022, and have had to use your services five times in the past 2 and half years from my ex-wife and step son. All of five of them where dismissed !! Thanks to Rachel Moss and Tory Srewart professionalism. Actually the entire staff at Attorneys for freedom have always been very helpful and professional. I highly recommend them them for your legal needs.Thank you once again from an A.O.R. program member since 8/22.

Lord forbid I should ever require their services.
That aside, customer service is outstanding !!
If you send them a concern or question. Don’t walk to far away, because your response is flying back at you; all of mine were answered same day including weekends.
I recommend them all day long. Cheers

Every time I've called their Law firm... I've asked a question and I've gotten an answer without having to drive 45 minutes and pay someone for a 37 second answer... These people are the Best of the Best... Hope I NEVER have to use their courtroom expertise... If you get my drift 👍👍👍🇺🇲

I recently had a double bill of my wife's membership that I caught on my credit card bill. I called and spoke to Noslen in customer service, she was able to figure out that when my wife upgraded to the new AOR service that she was double billed and took care of the error right away. That was good enough for me to be happy with her service, but she called me back right away and asked if I had been double billed the month before when I upgraded my subscription. I thought I probably hadn't but she checked and found that I had, then started a refund for me also. It is great to do business with a company that hires good people and encourages them to walk the walk as Marc Victor would say. Thank you Noslen and AOR!
