Marijuana Possession Charges in Dellwood, MO - for as little as $450

Have you recently received a citation for possession of marijuana in Dellwood, MO (or somewhere around the St. Louis area)? Did the police officer find more or less than 35 grams of the substance? When the officer found the drugs, did he or she execute a lawful or unlawful search? Would you know the difference? Were you aware that pleading guilty to the charge is an option that can have negative consequences later on in life? Did you know that if you hire an experienced attorney to handle your case, he or she will help you through the process from beginning to end?

It is an unfortunate fact that most people in Dellwood MO plead guilty when they are charged with marijuana possession. This is mainly because they do not believe they have any other option available to them. But the exact opposite is true. A good criminal defense attorney can seek to get the charges dropped or reduced to a lesser infraction. That is far better than dealing with potential jail time and a large fine.

As of January 1, 2017, the following laws regarding marijuana possession went into effect:

1. If you are caught with less 10 grams of marijuana, it is a Class D Misdemeanor (unless you’ve already been convicted on a prior possession charge, in which case it would be a Class A Misdemeanor).
2. If you are caught with between 10 – 35 grams, it is a Class A Misdemeanor.
3. If you are caught with between 35 grams – 30 kilograms, it is a Class C Felony.

And then of course there are the direct consequences of having such a charge on your permanent record. This can have a major impact on what kind of job you get, what sort of apartment you might rent, and even whether or not you can get a student loan.
