Contact Northampton's Trusted Cannabis Defense Lawyer
Although several states have legalized recreational marijuana and medical marijuana is legal in Massachusetts, there are still strict rules and regulations. In order to purchase or use marijuana (also known as cannabis), you must have gone to a doctor and proven that you have a specific medical condition. Even then, you can only purchase, possess, and use a certain amount.
If you have been arrested recently for possessing a large amount of marijuana or other type of crime involving marijuana, turn to Jesse Adams Law Firm LLC, proudly serving Western Massachusetts.
