There are a variety of criminal offenses that are broadly labeled “white collar crimes.” Typically, these crimes include Embezzlement, Extortion, Fraud, Money Laundering, and Criminal Business or Contracting Violations.

It is very important for a person facing such serious felony charges to hire an attorney experienced in white collar crimes. This area of criminal law typically is very document intensive. An experienced attorney who is familiar with both the business and legal documentation typical in these cases can be invaluable in defending a white collar criminal case. It is also important to seek the assistance of an attorney who is licensed in both state and federal court as these cases often have implications on both the state and federal levels, regardless of where the charges are initially brought.
