Even though arrests for pot are common, they can disrupt your life today and limit your future options. If you have been arrested for any marijuana-related crime, contact a criminal defense attorney at the Blumenthal Law Offices in Riverside, California. We will protect your rights as we help you navigate the legal system. Our goal is to minimize the negative consequences of all marijuana-related charges, including:
- Possession of marijuana or hashish
- Possession with intent to sell
- Cultivation
- Distribution/transportation/trafficking
- Possession of drug paraphernalia
- Juvenile possession
- Possession while on school property
- Possession while carrying a firearm
The possession of one ounce (28.5 grams) or less of marijuana is a misdemeanor. Conviction will result in a fine of not more than $100. For possession of more than an ounce, the sentence will be $500 and up to six months in jail. As the charges become more serious, so too do the penalties.
Our attorneys will work hard seeking to get the charges against you reduced or dismissed. We will determine if you are eligible for Prop 36 or other formal or informal diversion programs. We will question whether the evidence against you was obtained legally and whether your constitutional rights were protected.
Whether you were charged with possessing marijuana for medical purposes without a medical marijuana card or of maintaining a hydroponic indoor growing operation, we know how to help. Want to clear your record of an old possession conviction? We can assist you with that, too. Contact us today for a free consultation.
