You may be wondering if you will go to jail and how a criminal record will affect your life. William Weinberg is a criminal defense attorney who can help people fight a wide range of charges, such as drug crimes, sex offenses, theft crimes, assault and other violent crimes, domestic violence, gun charges, and white collar offenses. We pride ourselves on connecting with each client on a personal level. Attorney William Weinberg offers clients his cell phone number and encourages them to contact him about their case whenever the need arises. He gives every case his personal attention rather than handing them off to paralegals or associate attorneys. His staff work hard to make sure that clients are comfortable and that their needs are addressed. Both William and his staff understand the stress that you are going through and are dedicated to guiding you through the process as smoothly as possible. Drug Crimes Drug charges include possession, possession for sale, trafficking, and manufacturing. Possession charges may result in being referred to a drug diversion program. By contrast, drug manufacturing and other major drug charges can result in a long prison term. California Health and Safety Code section 11379.6 prohibits being involved in any activity that indirectly or directly results in the manufacturing of controlled substances. Depending on the substance, a conviction can result in imprisonment for as much as five or seven years and a $50,000 fine. Remember that the charges and the facts dictate how the case should be defended. In some cases, a criminal defense attorney in Orange County may be able to get a defendant into a drug diversion program rather than being incarcerated. Attorney Weinberg may be able to argue that evidence seized by the police should not be used by the prosecution because the seizure violated the Constitution. There also may be inadequate proof that a sufficient amount of the substance was involved to support the charge. These are just some examples of the methods used by William Weinberg.
