What Are the Penalties for a Drug Trafficking Conviction in TN?

Facing drug trafficking charges in Tennessee can be a daunting experience, with serious legal repercussions that could impact your future. It's crucial to understand the potential consequences and the importance of having a skilled attorney by your side. A conviction can lead to significant prison time, hefty fines, and a permanent criminal record, which can affect your employment prospects, housing opportunities, and personal relationships.

At May & McKinney, PLLC, we believe in empowering our clients with knowledge about the legal process. Here are some key points to consider:

  • Mandatory Minimum Sentences: Tennessee has strict laws regarding drug trafficking, often resulting in mandatory minimum sentences that can vary based on the type and amount of drug involved.
  • Impact on Future Opportunities: A drug trafficking conviction can hinder your ability to secure employment, obtain professional licenses, or even qualify for housing.
  • Possibility of Plea Bargains: In some cases, negotiating a plea bargain may be a viable option. Our attorneys can help you explore this possibility to mitigate the consequences.
  • Defensive Strategies: Understanding the various defenses available for drug trafficking charges can be crucial. Our team will work diligently to build a strong defense tailored to your specific situation.
  • Support Throughout the Process: We provide comprehensive support throughout your case, ensuring you are informed and prepared for every step of the legal process.

In federal drug trafficking cases, the government usually prefers to stay in the background, accumulating as much evidence as possible before acting. This means that undercover agents may watch your house, follow you around town, and monitor your activities — and you may know nothing about it until you are suddenly arrested.

If you think you may be suspected of drug trafficking or if you have already been charged with this offense, our law firm can help. Our Nashville drug trafficking attorneys can promptly launch an investigation of our own designed to sift through the prosecution's evidence against you. If the government agents committed any constitutional rights violations such as illegally searching your property, we will fight to ban that unlawfully obtained evidence from the courtroom.

To learn more about developing a strong defense strategy against drug sales or trafficking charges, arrange your free consultation with our Nashville drug trafficking lawyers. Call (615) 265-6383 or contact us online today.

    "Repeat offender facing time"
    When I got I hemmed up in Gallatin and caught two charges, I was told I was facing 180 days plus an extra 180-365 days serving time. I told my folks I was tired of taking chances with amateurs when It came to a legal defense lawyer. I initially called Frank Lannom's office, but they regrettably informed they did not practice in Sumner but they knew who did that was just as good and experienced. They gaveme the number to Mr. McKinneys office here. I called them up and Ms Savannah Edmonds met with me that day on a zoom meeting. I gave a very professional summarization of my charges , sentance they carried, as well as the exact figure they would charge. She even called me back to correct herself on something she said wrong. I thought that was exceptionally professional. Needless to say I knew May and McKinney were the lawyers I want defending me. It's easy to make back money. You can't get your time back. Anyway today was the first day of court with my Lawyer. And my first offer was "both charges dismissed" . Now you can't get much better than that. If you want to save money, take the amateurs and risk loosing your life, your name, your integrity or hire the professionals of May and McKinney and get results. Remember "you get what ya pay for" and with May and Mckinney it's well worth every penny !
