Defending Clients Charged With Marijuana Possession, Distribution, Cultivation And Trafficking

At Murphy & Price, LLP, criminal defense attorneys J. Dennis Murphy Jr. and Warren D. Price share more than 20 years of experience prosecuting and defending people charged with marijuana-related crimes, including:

  • Possession with the intent to distribute
  • Marijuana manufacturing/cultivation
  • Marijuana trafficking in combination with conspiracy charges

Many people view marijuana as a relatively minor drug. However, in the state of Maryland, it is still illegal to be in possession of any amount of marijuana. If you are arrested, the seriousness of your charge will depend on the quantity of drugs you possess as well as any suspected intent to distribute.

In many drug crime cases, we build a defense around the potential illegality of search and seizure procedures used by law enforcement. Marijuana may have been found in your possession during an illegal traffic stop or an illegal search of your home. In many cases, evidence can be suppressed.

If the search and seizure followed the law, we will look into other possible options for your defense based on the specifics of your case.

Sometimes the state does have strong evidence against a person suspected of a marijuana-related crime. If this is the case, we may have you enroll in a drug treatment program. Judges will often suspend sentences or be more lenient with sentencing if the person charged starts or successfully completes a drug education or treatment program prior to his or her court appearance.

  • "With Warren Price by your side, you can walk into court with confidence knowing you have the best representation possible."

    Mr. Price represented me in a Domestic Violence case. After a little over a year, the case against me was dismissed. Throughout the entire process, Mr. Price and his office were incredible in communicating and seeing my needs. With Warren Price by your side, you can walk into court with confidence knowing you have the best representation possible.

    Mr. Murphy and Mr. Price were the first attorneys I ever worked with. They took time to explain each aspect of my case and made themselves available whenever I needed them. They helped me through the most stressful year of my life and ultimately proved my innocence. I would highly recommend their firm. Not only are they great attorneys, but I would also consider them my friends.

  • "He was very knowledgeable in both criminal and military law and most importantly he was so passionate, very organized, respectful, and kept me updated on my case."

    I hired Mr. Murphy in the last second of administrative discharge. He gathered the evidence in a very short period of time because he knows a lot of people except, relationships with other lawyers. He was very knowledgeable in both criminal and military law and most importantly he was so passionate, very organized, respectful, and kept me updated on my case. I believe he is a great attorney and he deserves more than 5 stars.

  • "This is not just a job for Mr. Price but a passion. His attentiveness and care cannot be taught."

    If I had not hired Mr. Price for my case I am certain that I wouldn’t have had the same outcome. The way he understood my concerns and fought to get my voice heard by the prosecution was more than I could have ever asked for. This is not just a job for Mr. Price but a passion. His attentiveness and care cannot be taught in an institution. His character is not something you can buy with just any attorney. Thank you so much for accomplishing the impossible. Thank you for your heart and determination. Thank you for fighting for me and most importantly thank you for granting me peace. You’ll never know what a blessing this has been for me and my family. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
