Medical Marijuana

Medical marijuana is extremely effective in eliminating many of the painful side effects of serious illnesses such as AIDS, cancer, glaucoma and arthritis. Californians have recognized the value of medical marijuana, and have legalized marijuana for medicinal purposes. Unfortunately, despite the legality, patients, caregivers and doctors are routinely charged with marijuana-related drug crimes.

For more than 40 years, criminal defense attorney Bruce Margolin has been defending people accused of drug crimes and working to reform the drug laws. He has extensive experience protecting the rights and interests of people facing all types of drug charges.

The Law Offices of Bruce M. Margolin has served thousands of people accused of crimes related to marijuana. If you have been accused of any drug crime, contact the firm today to discuss your criminal defense representation.

Medical Marijuana Is Protected in California

Under The Compassionate Use Act and Senate Bill 420, people in California can legally cultivate and possess marijuana for medical purposes when approved by a physician. However, these laws have not prevented some counties from prosecuting people who are legally allowed to have marijuana.

Mr. Margolin is one of the leading advocates for the right to use medical marijuana. He served as an advisor to the California Compassionate Use Act and as counsel for the California Hemp Initiative. He has truly devoted his legal career to handling criminal defense matters related to marijuana - and he will aggressively protect your rights and interests if you have been accused of any drug crime. No criminal defense attorney in the country has successfully defended clients in more marijuana cases.

For general information about the current state of law regarding medical marijuana, please see the Medical Marijuana Landmark Cases. For specific information regarding your individual circumstances though, it is best to speak with an experienced attorney. Contact the firm today to discuss your medical marijuana defense.
