Denver marijuana possession attorney Colorado criminal defense lawyer

Denver marijuana possession defense attorney

Despite the recent trend to decriminalize marijuana, possession of marijuana is still a criminal offense and a conviction for marijuana possession will have a devastating impact to your future earning potential. Possession of under an ounce of marijuana is a petty offense in Colorado, punishable with fines and drug offender surcharges. Possession of more than one ounce but less than eight ounces of marijuana is a class one misdemeanor punishable by up to 18 months in the county jail. If you have a prior conviction, possession of over an ounce of marijuana is a felony. Possession of over eight ounces of marijuana is also a felony punishable by a sentence to the Colorado Department of Corrections.

Collateral consequences will also arise from a marijuana possession conviction. The conviction will appear on your permanent record, and could have a devastating impact on your future earning potential. In addition, a marijuana possession conviction may impact a professional license, such as medicine, teaching, or law.
