Drug Charges and Drug Trafficking
In North Carolina, anyone charged with drug trafficking will be required to
serve an active prison sentence and pay a fine. A person convicted of
possessing only one ounce of cocaine must serve a sentence of 35-42 months.
The punishment for drug possession increases based on the amount of drugs
involved. For example, a citizen accused of possessing four hundred or more
grams of cocaine faces a mandatory minimum prison sentence
of 175-219 months in prison and a $250,000 fine.
In order to defend drug trafficking and felony charges in the courts of
North Carolina, you need an experienced trial attorney.
Robert O’Hale has represented hundreds of clients charged with drug offenses
and trafficking. Mr. O’Hale has won not guilty verdicts for many clients. On
other occasions, the charges have been reduced from mandatory active
sentences to probation. Mr. O’Hale can’t promise you the outcome of the
case. He can however, promise to bring his more than 34
years of experience to work for you.
