Only $450 To Handle Most Riverview, MO Misdemeanor Marijuana Possession Charges

There are several negative outcomes that will occur if you plead guilty to a Riverview MO marijuana possession charge:

1. The charge will become a part of your permanent record
2. This will enable anyone wishing to run a criminal background check on you to see it
3. This in turn will make it that much more difficult to get a decent job or apartment (or even get into some colleges)
4. And if you are currently receiving governmental benefits (like food stamps or unemployment benefits), then those benefits could be revoked

Now let’s take a look at some of the positive things that a good Riverview Missouri marijuana possession attorney can do for you:

1. The attorney can examine all of the facts of your case to see if there is a possibility of getting the charges thrown out
2. Or the lawyer can work out a deal with the local prosecutor in which the charges are reduced to a lesser offense (like “littering”)
3. And at the very least, he or she can work out an SIS (suspended imposition of sentence) with the court, which would involve a period of probation

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

But what you want to avoid is pleading guilty!! Because if you make such a plea, there is nothing you can do about it later. It will become a permanent mark on you record, and will have damaging effects on your future.
