Due to the large number of arrests related to drugs and narcotics, those arrested are often encouraged by the DA’s office to plead guilty to charges they may or may not be guilty of – all in order to ease the burden on the court’s docket and the DA’s office. Unfortunately, most people accused of drug offenses fail to realize that future job opportunities, eligibility for financial aid, or housing applications can be adversely affected by even the most minor drug conviction. At Travieso Law, we advise and inform clients of the consequences before they plead guilty or attempt to negotiate a lesser charge. Aggressive and thorough in defending our clients’ rights, we understand how the legal system works and how to best advise our clients to avoid becoming a victim.
