felony marijuana distribution
No jail & probation
McADAMS LAW PLLC
misdemeanor probation and no jail
In a recent case, Andrew McAdams showcased his unparalleled skill and dedication to securing justice for his clients. Representing an out-of-state individual charged with felony drug distribution in Utah, Andrew navigated a complex legal landscape with precision and expertise.
The client, stopped by highway patrol with approximately 50 pounds of marijuana concealed in his car door panels while passing through from California to Illinois, faced daunting consequences — including years behind bars. With the street value of the contraband estimated between $100k and $200k, the stakes were undeniably high.
Recognizing critical issues surrounding the traffic stop and subsequent dog sniff, Andrew mounted a robust defense strategy from the outset. Swift action led to the client's release from jail shortly after arrest, with arrangements made for their return home while the case unfolded.
Andrew's advocacy didn't stop there. Through relentless representation, he negotiated a resolution wherein the felony distribution charges were dropped. Instead, the client admitted to a misdemeanor charge and paid a $2,500 fine. Remarkably, the client received bench probation with no jail time, with the sole probationary requirement being the payment of the fine.
This outcome underscores Andrew McAdams' commitment to achieving the best possible results for his clients, even in the face of serious criminal charges.
