Miami Criminal Charges Attorney
Miami Drug Trafficking Defense Attorney
Drug Trafficking charges in Florida are quite serious. All Drug Trafficking charges are
subject to mandatory minimum prison sentences. This means that upon a conviction
the law requires a judge to impose a sentence of imprisonment, even for first
offenders. The mandatory sentences range from three years to life, depending on the
type and amount of drugs
Drug Trafficking usually involves sale or distribution of large amounts of drugs.
However, in Florida the government doesn’t have to prove you were selling or
delivering illegal drugs to charge you with Drug Trafficking. If you are in possession of
a certain amount of ecstasy, marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamines, heroin or other
controlled substances, and it is over a threshold amount, you can be charged with
Drug Trafficking. It doesn't matter to prosecutors if the drugs were for your personal
use or that you had no intention of selling them.
For over thirty years Bruce Alter has specialized in defending people accused of Drug
Trafficking and related charges in South Florida and throughout the United States. If
faced with Drug Trafficking charges it is critical that you hire an experienced attorney
who understands the seriousness of these charges and will give you the best chance
to win.

seizure Many times police misconduct can result in the suppression of drug evidence
and the dismissal of charges. Every drug arrest must be analyzed to determine if an
illegal search has occurred.
Substantial Assistance in Drug Cases
Upon a person's arrest on Drug Trafficking charges, it is common for the government
to seek "substantial assistance" or cooperation from the person arrested. This means
the government will attempt to have the person arrested identify others involved in the
drug business and testify against them. In order to obtain this cooperation, the
government may offer a reduction in any sentence. It is extremely important that you
consult an experienced lawyer before entering into any type of agreement to cooperate.
Otherwise the government may take unfair advantage of you.
