Drug Trafficking and Firearm Offenses

Charlotte Drug Trafficking Defense Attorneys

Drug trafficking and firearms offenses carry serious federal penalties. Depending on the crime involved, mandatory sentencing is often involved, making it all the more important to fight the charges against you. At the law office of Barnett & Falls, we aggressively attack the federal government’s case against our client by exposing actions on the part of the FBI, ATF, or DEA that overstep constitutional limits. Since informants, surveillance, and undercover operations are undertaken to collect evidence in drug trafficking and firearms cases, our lawyers meticulously review whether entrapment or violations of the Fourth Amendment played a role in the investigation against our client. Since the government must have probable cause to investigate someone, the use of undercover agents to provoke or initiate illegal action on the part of a suspect always raises serious questions about entrapment.

Whether you’ve already been arrested or are currently under investigation for drug trafficking or firearms violations, it’s essential that you protect your rights. To schedule a confidential consultation to discuss how we can help you, contact criminal defense attorneys at the law office of Barnett & Falls today.

Protecting Yourself while You’re Under Investigation

Federal investigators usually spend months collecting evidence in a federal drug trafficking or firearms case. During that time, they may request a FISA court to approve a wiretap of your phone, monitoring of your banking activity, and other forms of surveillance. As criminal defense lawyers, we intercede on your behalf with investigators in order to prevent an investigation from getting out of hand and ensnaring our client in a web of suspicion based on innuendo and hearsay. Our office challenges actions on the part of federal agents that attempt to pry into our client’s financial information and personal activities when there is no hard evidence to suggest doing so.
