Our white collar criminal defense practice focuses on three areas:
- Civil Asset Forfeiture
- Financial Crimes
- Administrative Law Violations
In many cases, clients face two or all three case types in one global matter. For instance, someone accused of fraud may have had money seized from their bank account, may be facing criminal prosecution, and may be facing regulatory enforcement in an administrative proceeding.
Is your company under investigation by a law enforcement or regulatory agency? Has anyone been arrested? Have subpoenas to produce records been received? Have you been served with any cease and desist order?
If so, you need an experienced litigator with an instinct for trial work and defense litigation.
Great trial lawyers will size up a complicated case in just a few words and deliver a winning argument. She/he will mine for reasonable doubt by asking the tough questions or the ones no one thought of.
Asking questions in law is the legal equivalent of an x-ray or an MRI in medicine – they reveal what is inside a case. To get the information needed to win, we may ask questions like these:
- Did police build a case around the evidence or did they build evidence around you?
- Is your case driven by someone else’s jealousy, rage, political interests, or hearsay?
- Was your case built on circumstantial evidence or innuendo?
- Did police conduct an illegal search and seizure? Did they have a valid warrant?
- Was evidence properly collected and stored? Has it been reliably tested?
- Was there an illegal detention or pretextual traffic stop?
- Did police read you your rights? Was there an illegal interrogation?
- Does your case have a speedy trial defense? Are there grounds to dismiss your case?
- Can prosecutors prove identification?
- Is there a jurisdictional defense?
- Does your case have a causation defense?
- Do eye witnesses have credibility problems?
- Can evidence be suppressed or rebutted?
The most effective attorneys are exceptional public speakers and communicators. Because everything in court is argued verbally, the best attorneys are people who think fast, get to the point, and simplify the complicated. There is no time for indecisiveness or not knowing what to do. By identifying the issues early, by being better prepared than the prosecutor, and by having a cohesive strategy that is perfectly delivered, an attorney increases the odds of winning exponentially.
