Being charged with any drug offense is a serious matter. A conviction for even a misdemeanor charge, such as a Possession of Cannabis less than 20 grams, will result in a two (2) year driver's license suspension. This two (2) year driving suspension applies whether an automobile is involved or not. A drug charge conviction may also have a significant impact on your future, whether you are applying for a job, apartment, or you are applying for student loans.
Orlando Drug Charge Defense Attorney
At the Kramer Law Firm we handle every type of drug offense including possession, sale and distribution, manufacturing, cultivation, and possession of drug paraphernalia. We defend cases involving all types of drugs including cocaine, crack, meth, methamphetamines, heroin, xanax, and oxycodone. Because of our experience in handling all types of drug cases, we are well prepared to defend you if you are charged with a crime involving a controlled substance such as marijuana / weed / cannabis.
Our Drug Defense Attorneys also handle felony cannabis possession cases. Possession of marijuana in excess of 20 grams increases the charges from a misdemeanor to a third degree felony. While a misdemeanor possession of cannabis charge carries a maximum penalty of one year in jail and a $1,000.00 fine, a felony cannabis possession charge is punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a $5,000.00 fine. In addition, a felony conviction will have a serious impact on your future, including the possible loss of your civil rights.
Whether your drug charge is a one time occurrence that will never happen again, or you have a history with illegal drugs, the Kramer Law Firm can help you.
Exploring Every Option
While having drug charges dismissed is always a goal, it is not possible in every case. Therefore, our attorneys will always try to present you with alternatives. Often drug cases may be resolved by pursuing alternative programs like pre-trial intervention, pretrial diversion, or drug court. Once a defendant completes any of these programs, the State will dismiss the charges completely. These programs offer a guaranteed favorable resolution over the uncertainty of Trial. Still, the criminal defense attorneys at the Kramer Law Firm are always prepared to go to Trial if necessary.
