Alternative Sentencing in Drug Court
In Ada County and Canyon County, you may have access to drug court for certain offenses. For clients who are charged with a first offense, a drug court judge may be open to providing alternative sentences. This can involve counseling or community service. While the charges will remain on your criminal record, you may be able to avoid fines and time in jail.
Complexities in Drug Possession Charges
If your charge is a second or third offense, then your potential penalties will be more serious and may require a more vigorous defense. In addition, many drug possession charges come attached to charges like drunk driving or other traffic violations that triggered the vehicle search.
Our drug possession defense attorneys will aggressively stand up to defend your Fourth Amendment rights guarding against unwarranted searches and seizures. We will work with you to do everything possible to minimize the effect these charges will have on your life.
