Kevin M. Cobbin runs his law office from 525 N Newnan St, Jacksonville, FL 32202, representing those facing narcotics charges. Florida courts impose harsh sentences when a defendant is convicted of a drug crime. Drugs criminalized under state law include marijuana, acid, methamphetamine, cocaine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, and fentanyl. Different activities involving controlled substances are subject to prosecution, including possession, manufacturing, selling, and importation. Under Florida Statutes Section 893.13, you cannot sell, make, deliver, or possess with intent to sell, manufacture, or deliver a controlled substance. Charges depend on the controlled substance involved and quantity, with penalties affected by the drug’s schedule classification. Even if evidence exists against you, a conviction isn’t certain – various procedural or substantive defenses may be raised. The prosecution must establish its case beyond reasonable doubt for every element, and evidence may be suppressed if obtained in violation of constitutional rights. For instance, if drugs were found during an unlawful search and seizure, this provides grounds to move for suppression. A skilled attorney can also attack confidential informant credibility when appropriate. Available 24/7, contact 904-357-8448 for experienced drug crime defense throughout Duval County and surrounding areas.

Lake Lansing Rd, Suite A, East Lansing, Michigan 48823, specializing in defending clients charged with possession of Schedule III, IV, and V controlled substances.

Ken Swartz established the Swartz Law Firm at 14 NE 1st Ave #1211, Miami, FL 33132, specializing in drug importation defense. A substantial amount of drugs seized every year are at the border, entering the United States through countless methods including Mexican crossing points, international airports, seaports, cargo shipments, or smuggled via private aircraft and boats. Importation of drugs is strictly a federal offense because only the federal government has jurisdiction to prosecute someone bringing illegal drugs into the country. To secure a conviction, prosecutors must prove the illegal drugs crossed the United States boundary. Penalties are dictated by federal drug laws’ mandatory minimum sentences based on drug quantity – importing 500 grams or more of cocaine carries a 5-year mandatory minimum, while 5 kilograms carries a 10-year minimum. Defendants may qualify for sentences below the mandatory minimum if they meet certain criteria including no prior felony convictions, no firearms involved, no recruitment of others, and providing truthful statements about the offense. For those accused of any type of drug importation crime, contact Miami attorney Ken Swartz, a Florida Board certified expert in criminal trial law with many years of experience representing hundreds of drug conspiracy cases. Call 305-579-9090.
