Drug Charges is a very serious charge in which a conviction almost always results in substantial time in prison. Many times though, especially in Conyers, Rockdale County, Covington, and Newton County, people are charged with this crime when a less severe crime is more appropriate or when they were not even a party to a crime.
Just because you have been charged with Drug Trafficking DOES NOT mean that it is the appropriate charge in your particular case nor does it mean that a jury in Rockdale County, and Newton will convict on anything greater than a lesser included charge. Many times a lesser offense of simple possession of a controlled substance or possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell is a more appropriate charge. By getting your charges reduced, you can substantially lessen your sentence or you may be able to have your entire sentence probated. This means that you will simply have to report to probation and YOU MAY NOT BE REQUIRED TO SERVE ANY TIME in prison).
This is a very serious matter and requires a highly skilled criminal defense attorney who has experience in handling such cases. In a case such as this severe consequences can follow a conviction and it is important that you have a criminal defense lawyer who is able to take the time necessary to listen carefully to the particular circumstances of your case and represent you in the best possible light before the Court in Conyers, Rockdale County, Covington, and Newton County.
