Understanding Colorado Drug Possession Penalties

Colorado takes drug possession seriously and bases their sentencing off the level of the offense. The amount of drugs found on your person plays a large role in the severity of your charges. Possession crimes are classified as petty offenses, misdemeanors, or felonies, all with varying penalties.

Some of the penalties you could be charged with are:

• Between 6 months to 24 years in prison
• Mandatory substance abuse program
• Between $1,000 to $1 million in fines

Regardless of your crime classification, these are frightening and serious charges. With the firm on your side, you can rest assured that your case will be fought for with compassion and aggression.
