Alternative Programs

A conviction for possession of street drugs or recreational drugs doesn't necessarily mean jail time. I have helped many first-time offenders get into programs such as Intervention in Lieu of Conviction or Treatment in Lieu of Conviction. Assignment to alternative programs isn't automatic, and getting in often requires an aggressive effort by a knowledgeable defense attorney. Successful completion of these programs may lead to your charges being dismissed.
