Being married to a now-recovering addict, I've spent a lot of time dealing with the courts to understand the nature of drug charges and the options for defense in court. A lot of what I have learned has come directly from my experience with my spouse and helping them to not only get through several criminal charges but also recovery. Whether you're facing drug charges yourself or you have a family member with an addiction problem, I hope that the information here helps you to start preparing for the court process. Whether it's just to understand what's coming or to find possible options for a solid defense, my experience may prove beneficial.
