Marijuana

A conviction for a marijuana offense in Texas can result in serious penalties and negative repercussions. Although this substance is widely used throughout our state and nation as a recreational drug, marijuana can and often does result in a jail or prison sentence, ridiculous fines, driver’s license suspension, and a criminal record.

If you have been charged with a marijuana offense in Texas, it is vitally important to remember that you will not necessarily be ultimately convicted of an offense. The government’s prosecution is required to prove you committed every element of the marijuana offense beyond a reasonable doubt. This is not an easy burden to prove and any doubt in the mind of the jury or judge may possibly result in a dismissal or reduction of the charges against you. Contact Brooks Harrison – Attorneys at Law, PLLC to help you create your best legal defense.
