Marijuana Possession

Denver Marijuana Possession Defense Lawyers

With the widespread illegal marijuana use in Denver and throughout Colorado, many people have formed the opinion that marijuana use is not a serious offense. However, a conviction for marijuana possession or other marijuana drug offenses can result in harsh penalties, such as fines, incarceration, loss of your driver’s license and other consequences. Many people convicted for marijuana possession even face employment problems and difficulty obtaining a school loan.

With experience in both prosecution and defense of marijuana possession charges, our attorneys have the knowledge and skill to provide effective representation to clients facing charges for misdemeanor or felony marijuana offenses, including:

  • Possession of marijuana
  • Possession of marijuana drug paraphernalia
  • Cultivation of marijuana
  • Possession of chemicals used for manufacturing/cultivating marijuana
  • Minor in possession of marijuana or other illegal drugs

We are also experienced handling cases involving larger quantities of marijuana. When significant amounts of drugs are confiscated or found on the individual, aggravated charges for possession with intent to distribute, marijuana sale/distribution or drug trafficking may also be pursued.

Our meticulous attention to detail has proven effective in defending clients facing serious drug charges, including charges for marijuana possession. When drugs are confiscated from our client’s home or car, we evaluate if there were violations of our client’s constitutional rights. If there was not probable cause for a traffic stop or to search the vehicle, evidence obtained from the search may be suppressed from trial. Likewise, if there was not a valid search warrant to search the home or the drugs found were outside of the scope of the search warrant, a search and seizure violation has occurred and such evidence shall be suppressed from trial.
