In Fairborn County, a young student, who was anxious to enter the workforce and begin his life, recently wound up in some legal trouble and needed the capable counsel of the Ohio criminal defense attorneys at Luftman, Heck & Associates. Apparently, police officers confronted the young man and he surrendered a small amount of marijuana and a pipe. The officers subsequently charged him with misdemeanor possession of marijuana and paraphernalia. With no prior criminal history, the student was very troubled by these serious offenses because a drug conviction would seriously hinder his academic status and future career options. Therefore, he sought equally serious representation from attorney Bradley J. Groene.
Attorney Groene did not want to see the young man’s future jeopardized by this youthful transgression and used his extensive experience with drug cases to negotiate with the prosecution. Ultimately, attorney Groene convinced the prosecutor to amend the original marijuana and paraphernalia charges to a lesser disorderly conduct charge, requiring a small fine and payment of court costs. His client was relieved to move on after this incident, knowing that his lapse in judgment would not result in a haunting drug conviction.
The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
