What to do if I was just charged with a drug possession and I’m a trained and certified pharmacy technician trying to get a job?

I already spoke with one lawyer but i want a second opinion. I want to get the charges reduced so on background checks the possession charges don’t pop up. If I have this done, will my arrest record still say i was arrested for drug possession?

Based upon what you have written about, I suggest that you consult with another criminal defense lawyer experience din controlled substance matter to see what your legal options are such as a diversion program where if successful the charge against you would be dismissed assuming the matter you are writing about is your first offense.
