Brooklyn Marijuana Lawyer

A marijuana arrest can significantly impact your life, despite the fact that marijuana is less harmful than even legal substances like tobacco and alcohol. A marijuana arrest can have consequences on your career, your education, your immigration status, and your personal life. If you’ve been arrested in New York City on a marijuana charge, and were processed through Central Booking, then you know that the system has already significantly punished you. At Stoll, Glickman & Bellina, LLP, we can help you fight your case, and navigate all the uncertain consequences of even a relatively minor marijuana arrest.

Marijuana Possession

In New York City, the police for some years have been using marijuana arrests to raise their arrest numbers in general. It is not uncommon for police to arrest everyone in a car when they find one bag of weed on a person. Likewise, it’s not uncommon for them to arrest everyone in a house where a single small stash was found in someone’s bedroom. Our strong civil rights practice also means we’re ideally qualified to precisely evaluate the search and seizure issues in your case. If marijuana was recovered in a bad search or seizure, we can help you fight to “suppress” the results of the unlawful search.

Of course, if you’ve been arrested with a larger quantity of marijuana, the cops and prosecutors are going to be more aggressive about prosecuting you. We will be by your side every step of the way to aggressively fight back. We know all the ins and outs of how the cops are supposed to operate, and we know how they actually operate in the streets. See our results page to review some of the wins we’ve obtained for clients. We’ve handles many, many buy and bust cases, and many street seizures, car stops, and search warrant cases. Put our experience, knowledge, and enthusiasm to work for you.

Marijuana Sales

Sale cases ordinarily stem from either and “observation sale” or a “buy and bust”. We know the ins and outs of each one- we know about viewing posts, and buy money, kels and ghosts, undercovers and backup teams. We know the street terms, we know the “cop speak”, and we know the court lingo. If you’re charged with a marijuana sale, there is no better team to have by your side than our lawyers. We will break the case down piece by piece, and work for you to absolutely dismantle it. Our strong civil rights practice means we likely have a deep insight into the particular team of cops involved in your case, including any track record of civil rights violations. We love this work, and we can put our enthusiasm to work for you. View our track record for some of our results in drug and marijuana cases.
