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.

- 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.

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.

"If your looking for a great lawyer, stop looking & hire these guys!"I can’t thank Rob Mckinney enough for all of his help with my case . I had never been in trouble before, & was very leery on paying for a lawyer, but from the moment I hired them, until my case was over, I never regretted my decision to have them represent me. Both Rob & Shyanne took every one of my phone calls, & answered every question that I ever could possibly come up. I was an emotional mess from the get go, and probably asked 1000 more questions than necessary, but they took the time to go through absolutely everything with me, and never made me feel like I was wasting their time or that I was inferior to them. Their knowledge, wisdom and guidance was so comforting & helped me with the stress of the legal process. My case took 2 years & 13 court appearances, so it was not an easy journey, but they made me feel at ease the entire time, & in the end, the charges were dropped. Thank you ! - Lisa F (aka super satisfied client)- Lisa F

"Mr. McKinney is listed with Super Layers for a reason!"In the darkest and most ashamed moment of my life, Mr. McKinney with all of his kindness, encouragement, and unsurpassed knowledge for the Tennessee law was by my side. I am nearly 60 years old and never had a conflict in my life, let alone one that involved an uncontrollable emotional reaction, that resulted in a physical altercation. Yet under the influence of prescribed drugs for insomnia, anxiety management, and alcohol, I made a grave mistake which resulted in Class C Aggravated Assault Felony Charge. To complicate matters, I am not a resident of Tennessee. It goes without saying that Mr. McKinney has earned the utmost respect as a top tier lawyer from the Tennessee court system. He was able to professionally articulate my case to the court, emphasizing that I risk losing employment, showed that I voluntarily turned myself in, and that I was a first-time offender. The court listened to him and as a result he was able to negotiate terms that far exceeded my expectations. I spent a lot of time between my arrest and court appearance researching the standard outcomes for an aggravated assault charge in the State of Tennessee, and based on what I read, I expected the worst judgement to be passed down. Mr. McKinney however worked with the court system to not impose jailtime and an opportunity to have the charges expunged from my record. I know that I will forever be ashamed and grieve over the event, but he was able to provide me with the opportunity to work the rest of my life making this right to the victim, my family, and others that were emotionally impacted. Mr. McKinney is worth his weight in gold. He knows the law. He is respected. He is highly skilled as a lawyer. He is the very best. I only wish I met and got to know of him under better circumstances.- SB
