There are lots of different types of drug charges that may arise. Some common examples are charges for driving under the influence of drugs (DUID), being under the influence of a controlled substance, being present where drugs are used, possession of drugs, possession with intent to sell, sales, transportation, cultivation of marijuana, production of concentrated cannabis, or maintaining a place for drugs.
Depending on the type of drug charge, a good defense attorney will have a strategy to assist you in your case. Sometime a person needs treatment, as opposed to punishment in jail. Other times, people can be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and get falsely accused of a crime they did not commit. Either way, it is important to have good representation in your case. Many drug charges can get dismissed through a process known as “diversion” or a deferred entry of judgment. Also, many courts now have a separate Drug Court, which focuses more on rehabilitation, as opposed to punishment.
