A Narrowly Tailored Criminal Defense Practice
Most defendants facing criminal charges are embarrassed or worried about public perception of their situation. Others are more concerned about not going to jail, losing driver's license privileges, or the imposition of heavy fines. To address each of these concerns, you need a lawyer who is focused in the area of criminal defense, not a general practitioner. In short, you need an attorney who has experience in the area in which he practices.
At Noonan & Casenave, our focus of practice is in the area of criminal defense. Attorney Noonan is uniquely qualified to serve the needs of clients who are faced with a serious criminal charge.
Drug charges are serious business in California. There are many complicated aspects of drug charge legal defense, especially the issues of constitutional search and seizure. You need a lawyer who can fight for you if you are charged with marijuana or other drug charges — a local attorney who knows this area and knows the law.
Charges Involving Marijuana and Other Types of Drugs
Whether you were charged with a drug offense involving marijuana or other drugs, we can help.
Marijuana
Some of the most common marijuana-related offenses include:
- Possession of marijuana: This is the charge you receive for simply having marijuana on your person or in your home.
- Possession of marijuana with intent to deliver: This offense is charged when the quantity of marijuana you possess, coupled with surrounding circumstances, exceeds a certain amount.
- Tax stamp violations: If you possess marijuana in excess of 41.5 grams, the state will add the charge of class D felony failure to affix a California state drug tax stamp.
Other Drug Charges
There are many non-marijuana related drug offenses, involving drugs like:
- Cocaine
- Methamphetamines
- Prescription drug violations
Prescription drug violations can include fraudulent prescriptions and misuse of drugs like OxyContin, Vicodin, Xanax, Benzedrine and others.
