Re: Never been in trouble....HELP!!!

If you have never been in trouble before you are certainly more likely to get a more lenient sentence.

Was it possession of Marijuana or cocaine,

The only problem with any of these charges is that if you are found guilty your license will be suspended for up to two years.

My office is here in Broward where I previously worked as a prosecutor.

Give me a ring and we can chat further,
