Types of Drug Cases We Handle
Through Bloom Legal Network, clients receive representation for a wide range of drug-related charges, including:
- Possession of controlled substances (marijuana, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, etc.)

Louisiana has some of the strictest drug laws in the country. Substance type, quantity, and intent all dramatically affect potential penalties — making it critical to have an experienced team overseeing your case.
Consequences of a Drug Crime Conviction
A drug conviction can have long-term effects far beyond the courtroom. Depending on the charge, penalties may include:
- Mandatory jail or prison sentences
- Significant fines and strict probation conditions
- Loss of professional or driver’s licenses
- Permanent criminal record
- Federal prosecution for trafficking or distribution
- Immigration consequences for non-citizens
Even a minor possession conviction can harm your future opportunities. Working with Bloom Legal Network ensures that all potential defenses, alternatives, and mitigation strategies are fully explored.

Frequently Asked Questions About Drug Crimes Defense
1. What should I do if I was arrested for drug possession in Louisiana?
Stay calm, do not answer questions, and politely request an attorney. Contact Bloom Legal Network immediately. We will oversee your case, review the legality of your arrest, and identify any potential rights violations or opportunities for early dismissal.
2. Are all drug crimes prosecuted at the state level?
No. Many drug cases begin in state court, but trafficking, conspiracy, or multi-state distribution may trigger federal prosecution. Since BLN handles both state and federal matters through our trusted network, you’re fully protected no matter where your case goes.
3. Can first-time offenders avoid jail time for drug charges?
Often, yes. Many first-time or non-violent offenders qualify for diversion programs, probation, or treatment-based alternatives. BLN can negotiate for these options whenever possible, helping you avoid a conviction and move forward with your life.
