El Cajon Criminal Defense Attorney
San Diego Lawyers Fighting for Clients' Rights in Nearly 100 Trials
The state of California and the federal government have been passing marijuana possession laws for decades. Now, the laws are often so complex it's highly difficult for defendants to effectively fight their criminal charges without legal representation.
At The Law Offices of Kerry L. Armstrong, APLC, our marijuana possession lawyers have handled hundreds of marijuana possession cases. We are highly experienced in defending against these types of charges, and in providing aggressive and knowledgeable advocacy throughout the legal process. Our representation has resulted in dozens of instances of reduced charges and penalties, as well as acquittals, hung juries, and dismissed charges.
We can also manage other complications and pursue other options that arise in marijuana possession cases. For example:
- In cases where the defendant enters a three-month out-patient drug program and stays out of legal trouble for 18 months, a clearing of the criminal record is sometimes an option through drug diversion/expungement programs. This option is often pursued for first offenders, including college students.
- Rapidly evolving medical marijuana laws under Proposition 215 can affect people charged with marijuana possession. We have represented numerous clients who use marijuana for medicinal purposes and who were charged with possession. We have also represented the owners of marijuana dispensaries.
- Just recently, San Diego County finally changed its policies regarding the enforcement of medical marijuana laws. We are prepared to provide effective legal help in California's rapidly changing legal environment.
