What to do if my 20 year old son was charged as a minor in possession of alcohol for being in the back seat of a car that he was getting a ride home in?

The car was stopped by the police and searched. Alcohol was found in the car, he did not know it was there, it was hidden and had nothing on him, had not been drinking and yet was charged as in possession. t is unfortunately a 2nd offense charge for him , he did not fight the first charge and did community service and paid a small fine it was then continued without a finding.

Hello. Your son is in need of attorney assistance and legal counsel. Some attorneys are available seven days for emergency legal needs. Many attorneys will speak initially at no charge. Then, if legal work is performed, some attorneys will provide a reduced fee for financial hardship. Some attorneys may also assist you in a limited scope manner to conserve legal costs. All the best.
