Prescription Fraud Lawyers in Michigan
Aggressively Fighting for Your Rights & Freedom
Prescription fraud can occur in many different ways and is defined as the illegal acquisition of prescription drugs for personal use or profit. Prescription fraud commonly occurs when a person steals prescription pads, calls in their own prescriptions, or alters already existing prescriptions in an attempt to get drugs. People don’t always obtain the drugs for themselves; oftentimes, they obtain the drugs to illegally sell on the streets.
The most common drugs found in prescription fraud cases include:
- OxyContin
- Vicodin
- Demerol
- Xanax
- Valium
- Ritalin
- Adderall

Mr. Morris and his associates legal knowledge is unsurpassed bar none. Although my case was unique, having been on the lam for sixteen years, Mr. Morris was able to prove that the lack of evidence was detrimental to the prosecution and all charges were dismissed. Mr. Morris happened to be the second lawyer that I contacted. The first lawyer said he would take my case for a $10K retainer fee and that I had a long road ahead of me. The next day, I contacted Mr. Morris and knew from our first conversation that I was in good hands with his representation. Stop shopping around and hire Barton Morris today!
