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.

    "Look no further, Rob McKinney is the defense attorney you need."
    As a LEO wife, I was served with a frivolous OP from an estranged step family member. With the possibility of my husband not being able to process any firearms in our household, Mr McKinney's understanding the severity of the situation, Rob took the time to investigate and prepare for the hearing. With that said, Rob absolutely destroyed the petitioner and witnesses on the stand. It was worth the time, money and stress to see Rob in action. If the need ever arises in the future, Rob will always be our first call. You cannot go wrong putting your trust in Mr. McKinney.

    Rob McKinney did an exceptional job! I was extremely worried about my case. Not only did he get the best outcome possible for my case, he had skilled knowledge to answer all my questions about my nursing license along the way. I would recommend him to all of my closest friends and family. Karen and the entire staff are extremely helpful and I always felt that I was a priority. Thank you Mr. McKinney for helping to keep my future bright! I am so very thankful to you!

    I appreciate absolutely everything that you and your team have done for me. I could not have made a better decision than to have your representation during this horrific time in my life. Along the way, I feel like I was educated about the process and felt at ease with every step. The due diligence that was done on your behalf was top tier and goes without saying, simply awesome! The only regret I have is not coming to your first. You have my full support of referrals to anyone I hear that needs a great defense team in their corner, because I sure did! Again, Thank you!

    "Stop searching for an attorney. Stop worrying about your legal woes. Stop wondering if your attorney actually cares and start letting Rob McKinney handle your case."
    In a nutshell, all of the glowing reviews that I read on this site are 100% spot-on. I had a DWI case reduced to reckless driving. Rob is a fighter and would have battled for a full dismissal if I had requested him to but after some discussion I concluded that accepting the lesser charge was the right move for me. Furthermore, Rob was able to file a motion and get the judge to dismiss my probation obligations once I finished the mandatory classes. It was the best possible result for me. I also need to mention that Karen, the front end of the firm, is spectacular and plays an important part in the firm's success and client experience. She responds to communications promptly and keeps you informed of what's happening as required while Rob and Shyanne stay busy getting the legal work done. Seriously, if you're searching for representation and nervous because you don't know who you can trust and rely on, just stop. I promise you these reviews you've been reading (just like I did before I contacted the firm) are accurate and you can quickly take some of the weight off of your shoulders by having a meeting at May & McKinney and retaining them for your case.
