- A common offence among visitors to Spain is to be charged with possession - or the more serious offence of 'trafficking' - of drugs.
- Such legal convictions can impact later life opportunities, and it is important to deal with them with the appropriate level of seriousness.
- More serious offences involving the production and/or trafficking of prescribed drugs can result in the deprivation of liberty for considerable periods of time in a remote country, without local language abilities.
- Any expats or tourists getting caught with drugs in Spain should seek representation by an experienced English-speaking criminal defence lawyer in order to obtain the best possible outcome.
