Drug Trafficking Charges

Florida Drug Trafficking Defense Lawyers

Drug trafficking is the most serious felony drug crimes charge. It includes the importation, sale, or delivery of a controlled substance, with intent to deliver. This may simply be inferred from the amount of a drug found in your possession.

In Central Florida, we see drug trafficking charges brought against people in a range of circumstances, including college students who are just doing some drug dealing on the side with friends and acquaintances.

If you believe you are under investigation by state or federal authorities for drug trafficking or any other drug crime, or a loved one is under arrest for trafficking cocaine, heroine or any other drug, you need a vigorous defense from a skilled attorney. Contact the criminal defense attorneys at The Umansky Law Firm.

Criminal Penalties for Drug Trafficking

Drug trafficking charges can be brought by state or federal authorities. Either way, the penalties are severe. Conviction under Florida drug trafficking statutes carries a minimum mandatory sentence and judges cannot change the sentence at their discretion. That's why it's vitally important to avoid conviction and to work with an experienced drug crimes defense lawyer.

Minimum mandatory sentences in drug trafficking cases range from three years in prison to lifetime incarceration. If some drug trafficking cases, you could be facing life in prison.

Drug Trafficking Defense Strategies

Constitutional issues become extremely important in defending drug trafficking cases. Did law enforcement officials at the local, state or federal level operate within the constitutional boundaries of the law?

• Did the police have a right to stop you?
• Did they have a right and the proper authority to search you or your property?
• Was the search warrant properly executed?
• Was the confidential informant working off his own charges?
• Was the confidential information monitored by law enforcement?
• Was the informant credible? What is his or her past criminal record for drug dealing?

We investigate the constitutional issues of each drug dealing and drug trafficking case thoroughly.
