How to Reduce a Chicago Drug Possession Sentence

Chicago Criminal Attorneys Minimizing the Impact of an Unwinnable Case

If you have been found guilty of drug possession at trial, you may be eligible for programs that could reduce your sentence and even allow the charges to be eliminated from your record. Deferred Prosecution and expungable probation are just two options that could be available, depending on the specific drug possession charges involved and your criminal history.

When you are facing charges for the possession of an illegal substance, our main goal is to win your case and help you avoid conviction. The experienced lawyers at Luisi Legal Group will always work hard toward that objective, but, in reality, avoiding a conviction is not always possible. In some situations, the state’s evidence against you may be too strong. At that point, it is our job to minimize the damage to your life.

Chicago Attorneys Committed to Your Future

Reducing a sentence could mean much more than lower fines and decreased prison sentences. In some cases, we can negotiate an outcome that in no permanent impact on your criminal record. We will assist you in determining your eligibility for Cook County’s Deferred Prosecution Program which, when successfully completed, causes the charges to be dismissed and removes all traces of the arrest from your history. Our attorneys can also work with prosecutors to secure an expungable probation arrangement in some cases, which offers a similar end result.
