Possession of a Fake ID
Many college students get caught with a fake ID because they are trying to get into a bar or purchase alcohol. While this may not seem like a serious offense, a criminal charge of any kind can have serious consequences.
An experienced criminal defense attorney can negotiate with the prosecution on your behalf to see if a case dismissal or other favorable result is possible. Our firm has helped many college students facing misdemeanor charges protect their rights.
Related Offenses
Police have a number of ways to catch people who are in possession of a fake license. They may catch you at a party or they may go to a local bar and ask you for ID if you look under 21. They may stop you while you are driving and discover the fake ID during the course of an investigation for drunk driving.
People who have been arrested for possession of a fake license may also be facing charges for possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, drunk driving, public intoxication, underage consumption of alcohol, or other related charges. We handle a wide range of alcohol and student offenses, so we can provide the comprehensive representation you require.
