Medical Marijuana

In 1996 the State of California passed The Compassionate Use Act. This act made the growing and the use of marijuana legal for people desiring relief from the symptoms of certain illnesses and their treatments. Some of the conditions that may warrant the approval of the use of medical marijuana are:

Before the use of marijuana can be made lawful for a person, they will need to get written approval from their doctor. But unfortunately, even with this authorization, it will not necessarily protect you from being arrested and tried for illegal possession and use of a controlled substance. The reason why this is possible is that even though the state has sanctioned the use of medicinal marijuana, the federal government has not. In these situations you will need a San Diego medical marijuana defense lawyer.

If you, or a loved one, have been arrested for the cultivation and use of marijuana in spite of the fact that it is for medicinal purposes only, you need the services of an experienced and understanding San Diego medical marijuana defense attorney. The Law Offices of James J. Warner are committed to helping those who have found themselves caught in this unfair legal trap. We will aggressively defend your rights to pursue relief from your suffering.
