Georgia Drug Sentencing Guidelines Attorney

If you have been charged with a drug offense, it is important to have a lawyer who knows the federal and state sentencing guidelines. Federal sentencing guidelines, in particular, are applied by the judge to the facts of the case to determine the sentence. That why your attorney must build a case that considers the role that the guidelines play in the outcome.

Making sure that all information is considered in sentencing

At the Atlanta office of Richard A. Grossman, Trial Attorney, I know how the federal sentencing guidelines are applied to the defendant’s criminal history and the crime that the defendant was convicted of to determine the likely sentence. I prepare sentencing memoranda that present all the reasons that the judge should order a reduced sentence. I have structured sentencing memoranda around an exemplary military record, care for an elderly parent and contributions to charity and the community.

Sentencing memoranda

Sentencing memoranda require me to be highly knowledgeable about my client’s circumstances. I take the time to uncover mitigating circumstances that address the requirements of the sentencing guidelines. In this way, I work to achieve the best results possible for my client.

How the guidelines work

In drug cases, the sentencing guidelines are based on the type and amount of the drug involved. In fraud cases, the guidelines are derived from the amount of money involved in the fraud. Other factors enter into the calculation of a sentence, including whether or not a gun was used and the actual role of the defendant in the commission of the offense.
