We will represent you in court and fight aggressively for your rights.

While Washington has legalized the possession of small amounts of Marijuana for personal use, possession of more than 1 ounce (28 grams) is still a misdemeanor punishable by up to 90 days in jail, a $1,000 fine, or both. Possession of more than 40 grams of marijuana is a felony that can result in 5 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Possession of other controlled substances is a either a class B or C felony.

In a reversal from the prior administration, federal drug laws are being toughened. If charged today, expect the U.S. Attorney to file charges that reflect the most serious provable offense and sentencing factors to trigger mandatory minimums that can range from 5 to 20 years depending on the circumstances of your case. We will aggressively defend you in federal court and in negotiations with the U.S. Attorney, and will seek to obtain the best possible result for you. If you have been charged with a federal drug crime, whether a misdemeanor for simple possession on federal lands to being charged a co-conspirator in a complex drug conspiracy case, Peters Associates is there to provide you with the best defense available and honest and clear representation.
