your case is personal. our approach is too.

A federal crime is an offense that violates United States law, rather than state or local statutes. These cases are investigated by agencies such as the FBI, DEA, IRS, ATF, and Secret Service, and prosecuted by U.S. Attorneys in federal court. Federal crimes often involve conduct that crosses state lines, affects federal interests, or occurs on federal property.

• Drug trafficking and federal drug offenses

• White collar crimes: mail fraud, wire fraud, bank fraud, money laundering, tax evasion

• Weapons offenses: illegal possession, trafficking, or use in a federal crime

• Child pornography and exploitation

• Computer crimes: hacking, identity theft, cyberstalking

• Conspiracy and racketeering (RICO)

• Investigation: Federal agencies conduct lengthy, in-depth investigations—often before you are even aware you are a target. Surveillance, interviews, and subpoenas are common tools

• Grand Jury: Most federal cases require indictment by a grand jury, where prosecutors present evidence in secret proceedings

• Prosecution: Federal prosecutors (Assistant U.S. Attorneys) are highly trained and backed by significant government resources

• Sentencing: Federal sentencing guidelines are strict and often include mandatory minimum sentences, making penalties much harsher than in state court

Federal cases are complex and the risks are high. An relentless federal defense attorney will:

• Protect your constitutional rights throughout the investigation and prosecution

• Challenge the government’s evidence and procedures.

• Negotiate with federal prosecutors for reduced charges or favorable plea agreements

• Develop a tailored defense strategy based on the unique facts of your case

• Guide you through every step of the federal process, from investigation to trial and sentencing.
