Hire a skilled marijuana possession attorney in Long Beach CA and get the best possible resolution to your case.
Criminal convictions for marijuana possession have dropped significantly in recent years in California, in large part because of laws that permit medicinal use and decriminalize possession of less than 1 ounce of marijuana. However, this doesn’t mean no one needs a Long Beach CA marijuana possession attorney anymore. Chambers Law Firm is a respected defense attorney with ample experience defending against all kinds of possession charges, including:
- Infractions: Since 2011, individuals found in possession of less than 1 ounce of marijuana have been charged with an infraction. Just because there is no criminal penalty doesn’t mean you shouldn’t fight back with help from a marijuana possession lawyer in Long Beach CA.
- Misdemeanor Possession: In most cases, possession of more than 1 ounce of marijuana for personal use is a misdemeanor punishable by up to 6 months in jail and/or a $500 fine.
- Felony Possession: Under state law, possession of concentrated cannabis or hashish is a “wobbler,” meaning it can be a misdemeanor or a felony depending on how the prosecution wants to treat it.
- Possession for Sale: If police believe you intended to sell the marijuana found in your possession, you can face felony charges even if you had a small amount or a prescription for medical marijuana.
