Often, when the police mishandle procedures—such as conducting an unlawful search or stopping you without justification—our criminal defense attorneys can challenge this in court. If there are errors in the police process, any evidence obtained may be considered inadmissible. In such situations, there is a possibility that the case could be dismissed. 

Recently, views on marijuana use have changed a lot. Many states have made marijuana legal for medical use, and some have also allowed recreational use. A legal issue comes up with marijuana laws and possession: while it might be legal nearby, marijuana is still illegal in Wisconsin. Laws about drug possession differ depending on the drug type and how much is involved. For instance, having a large amount of marijuana carries different legal consequences than possessing more dangerous or club drugs.

Drug trafficking of controlled substances and illegal drugs is rampant in Wisconsin, making possession of opioid painkillers a grave offense. Opioid painkillers like Oxycontin and Oxycodone are often viewed as gateway drugs, leading users toward heroin. Consequently, if you are caught with these illegal substances, whether for personal use or with intent to distribute, you will be faced with felony charges. It's essential to seek the best Kenosha drug possession attorneys - an experienced law firm that stands out not just in criminal defense, but also as Kenosha's premier drug and marijuana defense lawyers.

The charges you face clearly depend on the type of controlled substance and its quantity discovered. In Wisconsin, marijuana laws have remained consistent, and despite ongoing discussions around decriminalization, no changes have been implemented. Additional complications stem from variations in drug legislation across different Wisconsin counties. Certain counties enforce stricter drug laws than others, which means that entering another county could potentially result in a criminal offense attorney.

Prosecutors need to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that you knowingly possessed an illegal substance. In cases of simple possession or a misdemeanor drug charge, regardless of whether you face a felony drug charge, our drug crime lawyers in Kenosha will diligently work on your case, aiming to reduce or dismiss your charges.
