Gainesville, Ocala and Bushnell Drug Cultivation Defense Attorney

Florida Drug Crimes Defense Lawyer

Drug cultivation refers to the growing, tending, nurturing or processing of cannabis or marijuana. If you are accused of cultivation in Florida, you may face misdemeanor or felony charges - meaning you will face a county jail or state prison sentence, as well as fines and other penalties.

Robert G. Whittel is an experienced criminal defense attorney who has been practicing criminal law in Florida for many years. If you are facing drug cultivation charges, you will need a defense lawyer on your side who can be effective even in the face of physical evidence that the prosecution presents in an effort to convict you of this crime. Through any one of a number of strategies, your attorney may be able to prove that your rights were violated (and therefore certain evidence is inadmissable) or prove your factual innocence and secure a not guilty verdict.

At the Law Offices of Robert G. Whittel, we deal with drug cultivation cases throughout Florida from our offices in Gainesville, Bushnell and Ocala. We understand that these are grave circumstances that require hard work and dedication in order to even have a chance at a successful outcome.

Drug Cultivation Charges in Florida

In Florida, you may be charged with one of two crimes:

  • Cultivation with the intent of personal use - this is the lesser of the two charges and is generally a misdemeanor (punishable by up to 12 months in county jail) because the cultivation was meant for personal use, not to sell or distribute to others.
  • Cultivation with intent to distribute - this is a felony offense, punishable by a minimum of 1 year in state prison.

Additional penalties may include fines, probation, registration as a narcotics offender, drug rehabilitation or counseling and possible deportation if a non-U.S. citizen.

Make sure that you don't take a chance with your freedom. By consulting Gainesville drug cultivation attorney Robert G. Whittel as soon as possible, he can start working on defending your rights and help you avoid a conviction.
