Alternative Sentencing in a Drug Case

Alabama Drug Crime Lawyer

If you have been charged with a drug crime in Alabama, you should consider speaking with an experienced attorney at Eversole Law, LLC about your options in regards to alternative sentencing.  Alternative sentences are a favorable option for anyone charged with their first drug offense or a non-violent drug crime.  Many judges throughout Alabama find alternative sentences a more suitable option than jail.  It is believed that there is a greater chance for successful rehabilitation if a drug offender is given the counseling or treatment he or she needs, as opposed to simply locking him or her up in jail.

Alternative Sentencing Options in Alabama

If you accept a plea bargain, plead guilty, or are later found guilty in court, an attorney at our office will fight for an alternative sentencing program instead of jail. While alternative sentencing is typically only available to those charged with a non-violent crime or their first drug offense, an attorney at Eversole Law may be able to negotiate an alternative sentence for you.

In Alabama there are quite a few alternative sentencing options, including:

• Drug Diversion Program
• Drug Court
• Work-Release Program
• Supervised Probation
• House Arrest or Electronic Monitoring
