Drug Possession in NSW

Possessing prohibited drugs in NSW can result in heavy penalties with a criminal conviction. This can be avoided if an experienced drug lawyers prepares your case well and convinces the Judge or Magistrate in court to give you a section 10 non-conviction or CRO non-conviction sentence.

Possessing a small amount of drugs can now result in an on-the-spot fine with a penalty notice instead of receiving a court attendance notice/criminal charge. In NSW, this doesn’t apply in all cases or to all drugs.
