Federal Charges

Attorney Shon Douctre can represent you in Federal Court in the Middle District. In fact, the US Courthouse is right down the street from his office. Mr. Douctre is a long time member of the Federal bar (2002) and will use his years of experience to your advantage. Federal cases are complex and could cost $15,000 and up.

Drug Trafficking

In Federal Court, Drug Trafficking is also very serious depending on the substance being dealt and the amount possessed or sold. Defendants are shocked to hear minimum mandatory sentences of 10-20 years with a million dollars per count for even very small amounts. These days, meth, heroin, and Oxycodone are some of the drugs treated with very heavy sanctions. In many cases, a homicide charge in State court can be treated equal to or lesser than a Federal Drug Trafficking case – in terms of mandatory minimums and maximums. If you have found yourself being charged with Federal Drug Trafficking, please call Attorney Shon Douctre as soon as possible to arrange representation.

Weapons Charges

Possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and/or possession of a firearm by a convicted felon in furtherance of a drug crime is common in Federal Court. This type of charge usually stems from a Drug Trafficking case when the Defendant’s person or property was searched and it is found that he/she has a prior Felony conviction. This charge can add significant time to any person’s sentence. If you or a loved one has a charge like this, please call Attorney Douctre for a free consultation to see what can be done.
