Florida Drug Trafficking Defense Success Story
When facing cocaine trafficking charges in Florida, the mandatory minimum sentences can devastate your future. Our client's case demonstrates how experienced criminal defense representation can transform a potential three-year prison sentence into a resolution that allows you to rebuild your life with minimal incarceration.
Criminal Defense Case Details:
Our client faced serious cocaine trafficking charges in Palm Beach County, Florida. Under Florida's drug trafficking statutes, these charges carried a mandatory minimum sentence of three years in state prison and a $50,000 fine - consequences that would have destroyed his career, family relationships, and financial stability.
The weight thresholds for cocaine trafficking in Florida are unforgiving, and the state's attorney was seeking the full mandatory minimum sentence. With such severe penalties at stake, our client needed aggressive criminal defense representation that could identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case and negotiate a favorable resolution.
