Seek Legal Help to Overcome Prescription Fraud Charges in California
In California, prescription fraud is taken very seriously, and anyone accused of such wrongdoing can face harsh legal consequences. It does not matter whether the crime was committed intentionally or inadvertently; authorities may still hold you accountable for any violations that were committed.

Our skilled attorneys have the knowledge and experience to help you navigate the complex legal process and potentially achieve the possible outcome for your case.
Understanding Prescription Fraud
Prescription fraud is essentially the act of attempting to acquire prescribed medications without having a valid prescription from a licensed physician. This may include creating a fake prescription, altering the details on a physician’s prescription, or stealing a doctor’s prescription pad to write fraudulent prescriptions for personal use or to sell. In California, you could also face charges for this crime if you are found to be in possession of a controlled substance without a valid doctor’s prescription. Additionally, doctors may be charged with prescription fraud if they knowingly write false prescriptions for patients that are not necessary.
Penalties for Prescription Fraud in California
The consequences of prescription fraud in California can be severe and can vary depending on the severity of the offense. In the case of a misdemeanor conviction, you may need to serve up to one year in a county jail. Felony charges, on the other hand, can result in a sentence of up to three years in state prison. You may also be required to pay significant fines for your actions.
