Drug Trafficking
Miami Drug Trafficking Attorney
What Is Drug Trafficking?
Drug trafficking is typically the most serious of all drug-related charges that a defendant may face. Drug trafficking often involves large amounts of illegal drugs being transported across state lines or national borders. This means that the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) or other federal agencies may become involved in the investigation and prosecution of these offenses - classifying them as federal crimes.
The state attorney has the authority to waive the mandatory sentence. As a former Miami prosecutor and long time criminal defense lawyer, Michael Mirer has handled all kinds of drug trafficking cases and prevented many clients from many prison sentences.

What Is the Penalty for Drug Trafficking?
A penalty of all drug trafficking charges are minimum mandatory prison sentences. Florida law establishes a specific term for imprisonment based upon both the type of drug and the quantity that was involved in trafficking. As the quantity of the controlled substance grows, the mandatory minimum sentence and punishment also escalate.
When Should You Call a Miami Drug Trafficking Attorney?
You may currently be under investigation for drug trafficking or may have already been arrested for or charged with this serious drug crime. The most important step to take, as early in the criminal process as possible, is to contact a top drug trafficking attorney in Miami. Retaining legal counsel is your Constitutional right, and failing to take full advantage of this may have disastrous results.
Why Should You Hire a Drug Trafficking Attorney?
In trying to cooperate with law enforcement, you may unintentionally say or do something that implicates you. There are numerous preventative measures that a Miami drug trafficking lawyer can take to actively protect your interests and work to help you possibly avoid formal criminal charges in the first place - such as ensuring an unlawful search and seizure does not take place or representing you in any interviews with law enforcement to prevent self-incrimination or a constitutional rights violation.
Can Drug Trafficking Charges Be Dismissed?
The prosecution must try to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are guilty of drug trafficking. At times, simply proving one small error or one rights violation by law enforcement can turn a case around and result in a favorable jury verdict. At the very least, an experienced drug trafficking attorney in Miami can work to mitigate potential penalties that the defendant may have otherwise faced.
