Alternative to Jail
Although many drug crimes carry serious penalties, a first offense for cocaine possession under a certain amount may qualify for the Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition (ARD) program, similar to probation. Under ARD, charges will be suspended temporarily and then dismissed from your record if the program is successfully completed as determined.
We can explain the requirements and help you apply for ARD. Our Reading criminal defense team has been advocating for those involved in drug cases in Berks County since 2009. We have interpreters available in all languages and accept most major credit cards.
