Marijuana Possession Charges in Beverly Hills, MO - for as little as $450

Did you recently receive charges for possession of marijuana in or near Beverly Hills, MO (or in the general St. Louis area)? Did you know that the state of Missouri has some of the toughest drug laws in the country? Were you aware that if you simply plead guilty to the charge of possession, then you could do lasting harm to your future? Do you know if the amount of marijuana found on you was more or less than 35 grams? Did you know that if you hire an experienced attorney, he or she can handle the case for you?

Most people mistakenly believe that the best and easiest way to take care of a Beverly Hills MO marijuana citation is to simply plead guilty to the charge. But that is not your best option.

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.

The far better option is to get the advice of a seasoned criminal defense attorney in St. Louis. At The Bankruptcy Company, we would seek one of two objectives: 1) to get the charges dropped altogether (usually because the police officer performed an illegal search); or 2) to get the charges reduced to a lesser infraction (to something like “littering”). These options are more appealing than doing a lot of jail time and paying a huge fine.
