October 25, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - New Jersey criminal defense attorney Adam M. Lustberg (https://www.lustberglaw.com/blog/possession-drug-paraphernalia-new-jersey/) explains the definition and details of drug paraphernalia crimes in NJ. The lawyer mentions that a drug charge can be stressful and frightening. It can leave a significant impact on a person’s criminal record and has the potential impact on a person’s future employment.
“Use or possession with the intent to use drug paraphernalia is a disorderly persons offense in New Jersey, but even a charge of this nature can carry some serious penalties and hurt your reputation. Because of the lasting stigma an offense like this leaves, it is very important to secure excellent legal representation immediately following this charge,” the New Jersey criminal defense attorney says.

The lawyer mentions that possession of drug paraphernalia typically refers to equipment or accessories that are commonly used with drugs. These items include glass pipes, bongs, rolling papers, roach clips, syringes, capsules, spoons, plastic mini bags, and small measuring scales. There are also other factors that may be considered in determining whether or not the object is drug paraphernalia.
Attorney Adam M. Lustberg also explains that if a person is convicted of possession of drug paraphernalia, the penalties may include up to $1000 in fines, jail time of up to 6 months, and driver’s license suspension for 6 months up to 2 years. However, if the person is can prove that they really need to drive, a judge may waive the penalties on a driver’s license.
In the article, attorney Lustberg, “Although a disorderly persons offense is not the same as being convicted of a crime, the associated charges can still have devastating effects on one’s life. Drug charges, even small ones, never look good on one’s record and can result in the loss of your degree or job opportunities.”
Lastly, attorney Adam emphasizes the importance of having a skilled lawyer when facing drug charges. Having an experienced criminal defense lawyer may be able to help the client understand their rights and protect their freedom.
