Marijuana Defense

Marijuana may be less harmful and less dangerous than many legal drugs, but the punishments for sale or cultivation of marijuana are severe. In Arizona, possessing 4 pounds or more of marijuana is a Class 2 Felony, which carries a mandatory prison sentence of 3 to 12.5 years.

Arizona criminal defense lawyer O. Joseph Chornenky has devoted 45 years to helping people avoid severe punishments. If you or a loved one is facing a marijuana charge, the lawyers of O. Joseph Chornenky, P.C., will meet with you and immediately begin working on your case.
