Drug Trafficking Charges in Georgia

The penalties you face depend on four factors:

• Type of drug: There are different categories of drugs under Georgia criminal law and there are different penalties for each type of drug. If you are charged with trafficking marijuana, the charges will be less severe than if you were arrested for trafficking a controlled substance such as cocaine or meth.
• Quantity of the drug: The amount of drug you were arrested with impacts your sentence. Additionally, the purity of the drug matters.
• What you were doing with the drug: Trafficking or selling the drugs is the most serious offense, while possession for personal use carries lesser consequences.
• Previous convictions: If this was your first offense, it may be possible to seek drug treatment or a form of alternative sentencing in order to minimize the penalties you face.

Our attorneys will thoroughly investigate the circumstances that led to your arrest to determine if there was an illegal search and seizure of the drugs. At our firm, we will explore every avenue to have the charges dismissed or reduced in your drug trafficking case. If this is not possible, then we will try to negotiate for rehabilitation or drug treatment rather than incarceration.
