Drug case lawyer in Riyadh and Tabuk

Drug cases are among the most serious in Saudi law, and penalties rise with the act: use, possession, dealing or smuggling. The difference between one description and another can mean a very different sentence, so a lawyer matters from the first investigation.

Usus Law Firm defends drug cases before the Public Prosecution and the criminal courts: reviewing arrest, search and seizure, arguing the correct charge, requesting release and appealing judgments. For non-Saudis a conviction may also lead to deportation, which makes early advice even more important.

What we handle

  • Use: personal use cases, and treatment options where the law allows them.
  • Possession: distinguishing possession for use from possession for dealing.
  • Dealing and smuggling: cases with heavy penalties that need close review of evidence and procedure.
  • Procedure: challenging unlawful arrest, search or seizure.
  • Release and pardon: temporary release and checking eligibility for pardons.

Frequently asked questions

Can I have a lawyer during investigation?
Yes, the Criminal Procedure Law guarantees it.
What is the difference between possession and dealing?
Possession for personal use is lighter; intent to deal is inferred from quantity, packaging and circumstances, and is a central point of the defence.
Does a pardon cover drug cases?
It depends on the conditions of each pardon order and the type of case.
