Potential Penalties You May Face in California
Depending on the circumstances of your arrest or the investigation, the results of a drug crime can vary greatly. For example, if you were accused of using or possessing a concealed firearm while committing a criminal act involving drugs, you may face serious consequences. Drug charges can also result in losing your driver’s or professional license, and a number of fines, probation restrictions, mandatory treatment or drug counseling, and jail or prison time.

"I am extremely happy with the law firm of Lavorato & Scott, my attorney is Daniel P. Bozzo and his paralegal Jana."From the moment I walked in they made me feel comfortable and safe. They consult me and I immediately happily retained their services. I was a nervous mess as I have different cases going a Restraining order/ Domestic Violence and Divorce . Both Daniel and Jana kept reassuring me that things will be okay and to confide in them. I had to get a little lecture , but that’s ok as I needed it...They really now what they are doing. We have recently gone to our first court hearing and I’m HAPPY of how things are turning out. Patience is a virtue. And I don’t mind waiting as long as things are handled appropriately.Iris G.

"When I say they are the BEST, believe me they are!"Christian is the best! He helped me in a very difficult custody situation. My son was getting physically abused. It was so difficult to see the court system not trying to protect my son. But Christian never gave up and fought for my son like he was his own. I will forever be grateful to him and his Wonderful paralegal Jana. So when I say they are the BEST, believe me they are! My son is now out of harms way because of Christian never giving up. So don't waste your time on other attorneys that will not care for the BEST interest of your child. You cannot put a price on peace of mind.Angie
