What Makes White-Collar Criminal Charges Different?
White-collar crimes are usually prosecuted in federal court. Federal cases are handled by federal prosecutors who have a much lighter case load and far more resources than prosecutors at the state level. Your trial will follow federal rules of evidence, which can differ from state rules. And, if you are convicted of a white-collar crime, you will be subject to the federal sentencing guidelines.
Despite these challenges, a strong defense is possible. Our criminal defense team has successfully helped many clients avoid criminal prosecution or severe criminal penalties by taking a proactive approach during the initial stage of criminal investigations. White-collar cases often involve financial documents, complex business concepts, and complicated computer forensics. It is critical to hire a defense lawyer who understands the unique issues involved in financial and business crimes.
