Representation Against Drug Possession Allegations

New York enforces strict drug possession laws, and being charged can have serious implications. Understanding the nuances between simple possession and possession with intent to distribute is crucial. Simple possession involves a small amount for personal use, while intent to distribute suggests plans to sell or distribute, leading to more severe charges and penalties.
