CALIFORNIA BEST DRUG DEFENSE ATTORNEY FOR  DRUG POSSESSION

California approaches drug crimes differently. They use the deterrence and incapacitation theory that underpins California’s especially harsher approach to drug crime charges. Increased arrests, convictions, and prison sentences are promoted as the primary means of discouraging drug use and reducing street violence.

Hiring a drug crimes attorney is the first step when facing a drug offense involving prescription drugs, transportation, possession, or sale. A band of talented and experienced drug crime lawyers will help you learn more about your charges and the proper defense strategy when it comes to prosecuting California drug crimes.

DRUG LAWYER BELL COUNTY

LibertyBell Law’s drug crimes defense attorneys have prepared and strategically presented defense tactics that require precision and style in court. In some situations, disputing the testimony, evidence, and alleged facts in criminal defense may make sense.

In other circumstances, it will be more prudent for the defense to concentrate on procedural flaws, such as a breach of a defendant’s right to be free from search and seizure. “I didn’t do it,” is the most popular defense to any criminal allegation. In some cases, it’s evident that the drugs in question belong to someone else, so if you say you didn’t “do it,” you’re implying that the drugs in question belong to someone else.

A drug charge on a permanent record can ruin the chances of a professional, and financial future. Hiring an experienced and highly strategic drug crimes attorney in California who can provide strong defense will go beyond giving you proper counsel.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY:
Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub.

    

I hired Gina and her team for my son who was facing 10 years for something they said he did when he was 17 years old. Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub. She did not stop. She fought hard and was able to defend the charges. We are so grateful to her and her team. They gave us our son. He recovered his life!

– L. W.
Best defense lawyers in the country.

    

I hired this law firm in 2014 for my son who was facing 16 years in prison for a felony robbery. Lina Helou answered all our questions. I was extremely distraught regarding what my son was facing but Lina comforted me and told me that it would be okay. And thank goodness LibertyBell saved my son from going to jail and they were able to obtain only 3 years of probation. I could not have hired a better law firm for my son and if you want the best defense call LibertyBell Law Group. Thank God for this great group of lawyers.

– V. J.
A great team of lawyers.

    

I do not have enough words to describe how incredible the experience with this firm was. They work very hard to make sure you have winning results. I could not have asked for better service from the moment I called, until my case was over. I was glad I made the right choice. Thank you again LibertyBell Law Group!

She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence.

    

My father had found this group through his company and coworkers. I was assigned Gina Tennen and I cannot explain in just a review on how gratefull I am to be working with her. My case was an accusation of unlawful sex. This had looked extremely bad on my part since I was in a fraternity and she was in a sorority. During these times with Greek life, there are too many bad stigmas surrounding these organizations. Gina had believed in me and knew that I was innocent and that these accusations just were not true. She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence. I totally recommend this law group because they are willing to put in the work to help your situation.

– C. D.
Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding.

    

When I first heard I was under a criminal investigation, I initially thought I would try and resolve this in the best way possible, without legal representation, as we were all interested in a "just" outcome. I quickly discovered that was not the case and contacted Gina at LibertyBell. She clearly described the expectations and the choices available to me. She was always available to me, and when I called, if she couldn't talk with me at that time, she would quickly get back to me. Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding. Her fee's were stipulated up front, as well as what those fees covered and what they did not.

– S. B.
Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one.

    

Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one putting pressure on the sherrif's office to get things handled. With Child molestation accusatinos being thrown around Gina and Attorney Castro were great at keeping the pressure on and had no charges filled. The DCFS indications were appealed and we won with flying colors. Great service, great work, and will use again for all legal matters.

Will Recommend, Total Experience, Awesome Team

    

Being involved in legal matters can be scary. When researching who to put my trust in, I came across Liberty and I am glad that I did. From the first time that I met with Gina and her team she made me feel comfortable and listened to all that I had to say. She assured me that her team would be on it and that they would do everything that they could! A little while in, Alan took over my case. When meeting with him you can tell that this is his passion and I immediately knew he was going to do everything in his power to make the outcome right! He was relentless and worked day and night working on the case. He kept in constant communication with me and truly cared not only about me but about my family as well. I am forever grateful for the support that this whole team has given me and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for truly the best lawyers!

AWARDS AND ASSOCIATIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a drug defense?

    An experienced criminal defense attorney can help you create a defense that fits your case and promises the best outcome for you.

    Possible defenses include explaining that you have a prescription, that the substance is not illicit, and that the search and seizure that uncovered the drugs was illegal. Another common argument is that the drugs belong to someone else.

    When you meet with a lawyer, you can discuss your case and the best line of defense for your circumstances.

  • What is the jail time for drug possession?

    The jail time for drug possession varies widely depending on the drug and the amount found in your possession. If you are charged with simple possession, the jail time is often a year, depending on the specific substance. If you are found to have intent to sell, that can add several years to your potential jail time.

    In California, if you are found to have more than the legal maximum of marijuana for personal use, then you may face six months in county jail.

  • What are the 4 main categories of drug crimes?

    Most drug offenses fall into these four categories.

    Selling drug paraphernalia, such as bongs, pipes, or syringes is one. Many items intended for drug use come with labels stating that they should only be used with tobacco and other legal substances, but it’s still possible to be charged for selling or exporting paraphernalia.

    Drug possession is another common offense. It’s a crime under state and federal law to possess controlled substances. The severity of the crime depends upon the amount of drugs found in the suspect’s possession. A large quantity of drugs may indicate an intent to distribute drugs, which is a more serious crime.

    Manufacturing drugs is another crime, and it includes involvement in any of the steps involved in producing illegal drugs.

    Drug trafficking is the last major category. Drug trafficking describes the intent to sell and distribute drugs on a large scale and often includes transporting the drugs as well. Drug dealing falls into this category, although it’s a less severe crime since it is on a smaller scale.

  • How do you win a drug case?

    When you’re faced with drug-related charges, it’s essential to find an attorney with knowledge in that area of the law. The right attorney can work closely with you to create a defense that suits your needs. You can also look into options for having your case dismissed.

    Proper legal support from an expert will increase your chances of winning and avoiding jail time.

  • Can you go to jail for using drugs in California?

    Yes, you can go to jail if you are found in possession of drugs in California. The amount of drugs found in your possession will make a significant impact on the charges and potential penalties.

    Since marijuana is legal in California, adults over 21 are legally allowed to possess up to 28.5 grams of cannabis. More than that amount, however, can lead to jail time and fines.
