Marijuana charges in Delaware are intentionally high to deter even the smallest amount of use and severely punish anyone using or involved in distribution, sale or manufacturing. Any drug charge is most properly defended by an experienced attorney, and your case, no matter how minor, deserves strong defense representation. Possession of marijuana is a misdemeanor offense at any amount, and, at minimum, it is punishable by up to six months in jail and up to $1,150 in fines. Possession of any paraphernalia can increase the charges dramatically.

Georgetown Attorney for Possession of Marijuana
Without experienced and proven legal representation, you are taking extreme risks. Prosecutors are out to convict defendants of the harshest charges allowable. Possession or sale of marijuana within 1,000 feet of a school is punishable with up to 15 years in prison and up to a $250,000 fine. Within 300 feet of a church, park or recreation area, the penalties are the same.
A well-prepared defense by an influential and thorough legal team is essential. We are often successful at minimizing and getting dismissed small possession charges, but we are powerless unless you contact us. We will uphold your protections against illegal searches, arrests and seizures of property under the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Our lawyers' personalized and dependable representation will work for your best interests in every aspect of your case.
