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

Have you recently been charged with possession of marijuana in Florissant, MO (or in the surrounding St. Louis area)? Has this charge got you seriously thinking about your options (and about what the legal implications of such a charge might be)? Do you know how many grams of marijuana were found? Do you know if the police officer who performed the search did so in a legal fashion? Are you thinking about simply pleading guilty? Do you know what the long term consequences of such a decision are? Are you aware that by hiring an experienced attorney, he or she can explain your Constitutional right and options?

The sad fact is that most people in the Florissant MO area plead guilty to charges of marijuana possession. They do so because they honestly believe that there is no other better alternative. But there is! At The Bankruptcy Company, we want to accomplish one of two things: 1) get the charges dropped altogether (usually because an illegal search was performed by the police); or 2) get the charges reduced to some lesser offense (so that it does not even show up on your permanent record).

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 beyond the sentence you might receive, you would have to deal with all the collateral damage. For example, a drug conviction can have a negative impact on your chances to get a decent job, get into an apartment, or even secured a student loan.
