MEDICAL MARIJUANA
California Law
- Despite the clear intent of the voters in passing the California Compassionate Use Act (Proposition 215) in 1996, legitimate users of medical marijuana are still facing criminal charges at the local, state and federal level.
- The Law Office of Adam T. Spicer is committed to defending individuals charged with marijuana related offenses. The strategy used is threefold – first we work to ensure that patients can continue to use their medication while facing criminal charges, next we do everything possible to beat the charges or work out an acceptable plea deal and last we ensure that patients will not face further government harassment in the future.
