Union County Marijuana Cultivation
New Jersey Marijuana Lawyer

Despite the severity of penalties associated with marijuana charges, I am extremely successful in cutting marijuana penalties. Typical consequences can include fines of $15,000 or more, prison time, probation, community service, and loss of license.  Often I can get my clients acquitted of marijuana charges by spinning the facts in their favor, but it’s important to have an attorney who knows when to fight and when to negotiate.  Sometimes supporting evidence won’t warrant an acquittal, but can be used to negotiate for lesser charges or penalties.  An experienced attorney knows when and how to act to get the best results for his client in any given circumstance.  At Palumbo & Renaud, my clients walk into court with confidence, and leave with the results they need to get their lives back on track. I defend individuals accused of marijuana offenses throughout New Jersey including Union County, Middlesex County, Monmouth County, Essex County, Somerset County, the towns of Elizabeth, Woodbridge, Linden, Rahway, Clark, Roselle, Roselle Park, Springfield, Kennilworth, Union, Westfield, and Scotch Plains.

A Hard-line Defense

I have been a criminal defense attorney with more than 35 years of trial experience in New Jersey courts. As a former county and municipal prosecutor and a longtime criminal defense lawyer, I know what to expect from the local judges, prosecutors and police. I have a steadfast reputation among Union County judges and prosecutors, and I have been obtaining frequent acquittals in Union County for over 35 years.

Contact me today for a free initial consultation at 1-866-664-8118.  I don’t waste time lecturing or judging my clients, the only thing I’m interested in is getting results. 

Contacting an attorney right away is the best thing you can do for your defense, and remember, NEVER speak to the police, even if they demand it.
