Ultimately your options will depend on what you charged with. In other words whether possession is ultimately charged as well. There is a good chance you can request a court appointed attorney. If this is the case, then I highly recommend you do so. Your other options are to attempt to reach a plea without going to trial. Again, you are likely to receive a better deal with an attorney than without. You also have the option of going to trial with or without an attorney. However, most first time offenders often find that a good plea deal is beneficial.
