The Umansky Law Firm

The ubiquitous Paris Hilton has turned up in the news over the last few weeks for her marijuana busts overseas. First it was South Africa during the World Cup. Now it's in Corsica. The jet setting party girl had just arrived for an island holiday and was going through customs when she was caught allegedly because she was carrying a small amount of pot.

Apparently, Hilton was arrested for possession, but was let go without charge a short time later when the amount she was allegedly carrying came to less than a gram. In South Africa, Hilton was pulled aside and searched. When customs officials found marijuana, they confiscated and destroyed the drug before sending the heiress on her way.

Marijuana arrests are usually no laughing matter in Florida. Law enforcement takes drug possession seriously. If you are caught with less than a gram, there may be a chance that you will be let go with a warning and having your stash confiscated, but do you want to take that risk?

The experienced criminal defense attorneys at the Umansky Law Firm have represented numerous individuals who have been charged with drug possession. If you have been arrested for carrying a small amount of marijuana, we may be able to plead down to a simple fine or probation.
