Federal White Collar Criminal Defense

Federal White Collar Criminal Defense Lawyers

National and International Representation 

A federal investigation can place a client’s liberty, livelihood, professional standing, and reputation at immediate risk. When the FBI, DOJ, or a federal regulator becomes involved, the matter may span jurisdictions, agencies, financial records, electronic evidence, and parallel civil or administrative proceedings.

We are a trial-ready boutique practice built for high-stakes, fact-intensive matters. We represent individuals, executives, founders, and professionals facing complex federal allegations, bringing disciplined investigation, strategic advocacy, and courtroom preparation to every stage of the case. 

Reach us online or at (888) 721-7680 to schedule a virtual consultation with a federal white-collar criminal defense attorney.

Conspiracy

Conspiracy charges can substantially expand a federal case by tying an individual to the alleged conduct of others. The government must still prove a knowing agreement to participate in an unlawful scheme. We scrutinize that alleged agreement, test the reliability and incentives of cooperating witnesses, and distinguish our client’s conduct from the broader narrative the prosecution seeks to present.

Wire & Mail Fraud

Wire and mail fraud statutes reach a broad range of communications and transactions. Their breadth makes intent, materiality, and the actual business record central issues in the defense. We examine the financial, technical, and communications evidence to identify where the government has mistaken a contract dispute, unsuccessful venture, or aggressive business judgment for a scheme to defraud.

Government Investigations

The most consequential work in a white-collar matter may occur before an indictment. A subpoena, target letter, interview request, or regulatory inquiry can signal that the government is building a case. When appropriate, we engage with agents and prosecutors early, assess the legal and factual record, protect the client during investigative contacts, and advocate before charging decisions are made.

Extradition

Extradition proceedings demand coordinated advocacy across jurisdictions and a close command of the governing treaty, the requesting state’s allegations, and the procedural protections available in the requested state. We represented Lauri Love as co-counsel in his successful challenge to extradition from the United Kingdom to the United States, and work with experienced counsel abroad to help clients address cross-border criminal exposure.

Strategic Defense When the Stakes Are High

A federal investigation demands an informed response from the outset. We do not accept the government’s account untested. We investigate the evidence, challenge the legal theory, and develop a defense strategy that accounts for the client’s liberty, professional future, and reputation.

Our practice combines complex-litigation experience with a trial-focused approach to federal criminal defense. Whether the matter calls for early intervention, intensive pretrial litigation, or a jury trial, we work to put the government’s case to proof and protect the client at every stage.
