Drug Possession
Explore Your Legal Options in Drug Possession Cases
Don't make the mistake of assuming that a California charge of drug possession is necessarily a minor problem. However attractive the plea deal you can arrange for yourself, you might be facing future consequences that you never anticipated: mandatory registration as a drug addict, immigration problems, professional or vocational licensing obstacles, or limited access to student loans.
To learn how you can stay out of jail on drug possession charges while protecting your future interests, contact a skilled criminal defense lawyer at any of the offices of Seymour I. Amster, Attorney at Law.
With locations in Van Nuys, Lancaster, West Covina, downtown L.A. and throughout Southern California we're not only convenient for our clients, but we offer a thorough familiarity with the different charging, pretrial and sentencing practices of each of the courts in the region we serve.

Just as in felony drug trafficking cases, we attack the circumstances of the seizure of the drugs whenever we can. If we can show that the arresting officer had no right to find the drugs where they were found, we can usually make the entire case go away. If the evidence of possession against you can't be suppressed, however, we take different approaches to your defense.
Any option for diverting your case for treatment, keeping it in drug court, or otherwise qualifying you for expungement will not only resolve your immediate problem, but protect your future as well.
We represent adults and juveniles, first-time or repeat offenders, and anyone else facing drug possession charges involving such controlled substances as the following:
- Heroin
- Powder or crack cocaine
- Marijuana, including medical marijuana
- Methamphetamine, including possession of meth lab equipment and precursor chemicals
- Ecstasy or other club drugs
- Roofies or other date rape drugs
- LSD, PCP or other hallucinogens
- Oxycontin, Vicodin or other prescription painkillers
