Marijuana DUI in Bellevue
A marijuana related DUI is very similar to an alcohol related DUI – so much so that they fall under the same statute. Just like a DUI, you will be facing jail time, fines, court fees, a license suspension, court ordered classes, and even an ignition interlock requirement! If you are being accused of driving under the influence of marijuana, give our Bellevue office a call. We will be more than happy to answer your questions. While an alcohol related DUI has a per se legal limit of .08, the marijuana THC limit in your system is 5 ng/ml. The general consensus is that this limit is quite low so you may actually be over that limit without even knowing it. It can also be more difficult to project the amounts in your system compared to alcohol. The different methods of consumption and lack of clearly labeled THC levels can result in different THC levels in your system. Just like with an alcohol related DUI, there are other factors which can impact the penalties you face, such as:
- Prior DUI charges
- Whether you refused a blood draw
- Whether there were injuries involved
- Whether you have a CDL
- Whether there are passengers under 16
If you are facing a DUI in which marijuana is involved, give our office a call for a free consultation with an experienced Bellevue, WA DUI lawyer. It is important to understand what you will be facing and to be proactive in addressing the charges.

"I can't say enough great things about Jason Newcombe Law Office. I am retired military and I highly recommend Jason Newcombe Law Office. I reached out to Jason's office after sitting for hours reviewing multiple Domestic Violence Law Offices in King County. He responded before that day was over. I spoke with Jason's both in-person and by phone; felt very comfortable with his years of experience and straight talk. He took on my case, took me through the process with sound advice. The Attorney Erin Lane who accompanied me with my court appearances; can't praise and thank her enough for her time, selflessness and educational information prior to each court appearance. She made a really daunting task for me less fearful, given such grim circumstances. I am forever grateful for Jason and the Team of Attorneys." Tommy Harville

"I cannot thank Mr. Newcombe and his staff enough. They are awesome. When I first contacted his offices, I didn't know what to do. I was overwhelmed and confused. He did an amazing job, I highly recommend him! I had two cases, and he got both of them dismissed. If you are in trouble, do yourself a favor, give him a call. " David
