Atlanta Marijuana Crimes Lawyer
Were you charged with a Marijuana Crime?
Marijuana is classified differently than every other illegal drug as it possesses its own charges and consequences. Typically, marijuana charges are less severe than its drug counterparts but the seriousness of this charge should not be downplayed. State and federal officials will aggressively pursue any individual who have violated a marijuana law. Georgia has penalties for the following marijuana crimes:
- Possession of marijuana
- Cultivation of marijuana
- Trafficking marijuana
- Selling or distributing to a minor
- Forging a prescription for medical marijuana
Marijuana crimes are very serious and require the professional legal representation of an Atlanta defense attorney

Prosecutors will waste no time going after those charged with marijuana crimes. The punishment for this charge is weighed heavily on circumstances. For example, the amount of marijuana in one's possession when arrested or charged will affect the severity of the punishment. If large amounts of marijuana are found in the possession or directly associated with an individual then felony charges and prison time can be passed down.
