Drug Possession Defense
When facing drug possession charges, it is crucial to have an attorney who not only possesses a deep understanding of the law but also has a compassionate approach towards the complexities of drug use. J. R. Kuhlmann, an experienced criminal defense attorney, brings a unique perspective to drug possession cases. During his time as a prosecutor, one of Mr. Kuhlmann's responsibilities was to be in charge of drug court, an experience that shaped his views on the criminal justice system's approach to drug-related offenses.
Unlike many prosecutors, Mr. Kuhlmann became disillusioned with the idea of imprisoning individuals solely for drug use or possession. He learned to recognize the difference between an addict and an occasional user and the importance of addressing the underlying issues of addiction rather than focusing solely on punishment. This firsthand experience has given him a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced by individuals struggling with substance abuse.
Helping you find rehabilitation, diversion, or deferment programs
For the non-addict, many diversion and deferred programs are available to avoid a conviction. For the addict, there are also many rehabilitation programs available through the state at no cost to the client. Mr. Kuhlmann works to ensure that each client is set up for success at the conclusion of their case.
As your defense attorney, Mr. Kuhlmann will work tirelessly to ensure that you receive the help and support you need, rather than being unjustly incarcerated.
