Drug Crimes Defense
Attorney Nicole DeBorde defends clients charged with a range of state and federal drug crimes involving cocaine and meth:
- Drug possession
- Trafficking
- Distribution
- Manufacturing
- Operating a meth lab
Both cocaine and meth are classified as Schedule 1 drugs in Texas. The penalties assigned Schedule 1 drug convictions are the most severe, but also dependent on the amount of drug involved. An individual convicted of a drug crime under this classification could face life in prison and fines of up to $100,000.
An individual may be facing heightened penalties if he or she is found to have precursors in conjunction with drug possession in Houston, TX. Baggies, scales, precursor chemicals, and other materials can push a simple possession charge to a manufacturing or trafficking charge. In federal cases, crack cocaine offenses are punished much more harshly than those involving powder cocaine.

“At the lowest point in my life, I found Nicole DeBorde after a thorough AI search for top-notch criminal law firms led me to HOCHGLAUBE & DEBORDE, PC in Houston, TX. I was drawn to the firm’s 60 years of combined legal experience and its direct communication model, where clients work closely with named partners rather than simply junior associates or paralegals.
Nicole did not disappoint me. As expected, she is competent, thorough, and comfortable in the courtroom. In addition, I was deeply appreciative that she showed a great deal of empathy and compassion for me as a person during my ordeal.
Nicole was very proactive in my case. I believe she played a huge role in securing a “No Bill” return from the grand jury. I have no doubt that her wealth of experience as a former Harris County prosecutor (from 1994 to 2002) and skilled defense attorney since was instrumental in producing the grand jury’s decision not to indict.
Nicole removed what felt like the weight of the world from my shoulders. I am extremely thankful for the outcome of the case and forever grateful for her experience, dedication, preparedness, and strong work ethic.” -
“I don't know where to begin to explain how thorough, professional, effective and awesome this law firm is. Nicole Deborde and her team did a fantastic job in representing me in a very serious, 2nd-degree felony criminal case. End result, the case was dropped. God forbid any of you ever need a criminal defense attorney in the state of Texas, but if you do, I recommend this firm, 100%. Thank you, Nicole, and your team, for saving my life”
