White Collar Crimes

We have experience protecting the rights of individuals facing white collar criminal charges in Virginia’s state courts and in federal courts throughout the United States. White collar cases can involve allegations of large conspiracies comprised of numerous individuals and corporations. Substantial financial losses caused by embezzlement, bid rigging, tax evasion, or other types of alleged fraud may be an issue. Our lawyers have the knowledge and ability to analyze the unique factors of your case in order to prepare an effective defense.

Whether you currently face charges or are under investigation, our lawyers are prepared to defend all manners of white collar crimes including:

  • Fraud
  • Embezzlement

If you believe that you are under investigation for a white collar crime or you have been asked to speak with someone from the government regarding potential charges, you should obtain proper legal counsel immediately. When possible, you should hire counsel before formal charges are filed. Our early intervention on your behalf can result in a more favorable final disposition. The government may elect to pursue less serious charges or decline to press criminal charges entirely.

The media can play a substantial role in white collar criminal cases. Our lawyers are experienced in dealing with the media. As part of your defense, we will help you devise a strategy to address the publicity that may surround your case. It is important that potential judges, prosecutors, and jurors not be negatively influenced by the media’s reporting. In addition, more favorable or limited publicity will better allow you to return to a normal life once your case is over.

Drug offenses can involve complex laws, intricate investigations, and severe mandatory sentences. There are many factors you must consider before determining what legal course of action you will take following an arrest on drug charges. Our lawyers have the experience and expertise needed to reliably answer all your questions in this difficult situation.
