Is it worth presenting affidavit to grand jury fto reduce drug charge?

Hi,

Is it possible to reduce or eliminate drug possession charge by presenting affidavit to grand jury? I have been suggested to do this for my son's drug possession charge for a fee of $2,500.00 which seems high.

Any response is appreciated.

If an attorney is being retained for the purpose of trying to get a drug charge no-billed by the grand jury, then it could be a reasonable fee.

If you are the one being charged the fee, ask for a more detailed description of the charges.
