Practice Areas

VAN NUYS DRUG POSSESSION ATTORNEY

San Fernando & Van Nuys Drug Possession Attorney

Individuals charged with misdemeanor and felony drug possession – whether for marijuana, methamphetamine, cocaine or other drugs and narcotics – may qualify for various drug treatment programs. Such programs include Deferred Entry of Judgment (“DEJ”) and Proposition 36. Individuals who qualify for and successfully complete a DEJ and/or Proposition 36 program will have their drug possession case dismissed.

Individuals who do not qualify for a drug treatment program, either because of prior criminal convictions or they refuse treatment, can face sentences from infractions to misdemeanor and felony convictions which could include a substantial period of incarceration in county jail or, in extreme cases, state prison.

Anyone charged with a drug possession offense should immediately retain a top Van Nuys drug defense attorney to challenge your drug possession charge. For over 80 combined years, Schwartz & Weinrieb has vigorously protected individuals charged with the possession of:

  • Marijuana
  • Methamphetamine
  • Cocaine
  • Crack cocaine
  • Heroin
  • Ecstasy
  • Steroids
