White Collar Cases
A conviction for any felony involves the loss of civil rights and a sentence that involves possible prison time and substantial financial penalties.
Are you suspected of embezzlement, insider trading, mortgage fraud, tax evasion or any other white collar crime involving the alleged illegal misuse of financial or corporate resources, or violation of federal or state regulations?
When a corporation hires a criminal defense lawyer, that lawyer owes a duty to the corporation as a whole and its shareholders. Corporations that are indicted for crimes face the "corporate death penalty" of withdrawn investment. Our attorneys steadfastly hold to their duties when hired by corporations.
In addition, if you are implicated or believe you may be implicated in a corporate criminal matter as an individual, it is important for you to have your own attorney, because the corporation's attorney does not owe a duty to you, but rather to the corporation.
Our attorneys have extensive experience defending clients accused of Texas and federal white collar crimes, including the following:
- Conspiracy
- Money Laundering
- Theft and Embezzlement
- Securities Fraud
- Anti-Theft Violations
- Environmental Disputes
- Extortion
- Bribery
- Public Corruption
- Tax Evasion and Tax Protests
- Bulk Cash Smuggling
- Defense Department Fraud
- Foreign Corrupt Practice
- Healthcare Fraud
- Mail Fraud
- R.I.C.O. and Organized Crime
- Texas Parks and Wildlife
- Aircraft Parts Fraud
- Immigration Offenses
- Insurance Fraud
The "procedures" for federal and state cases are complicated and may take months – or even years. Take a look at the attached chart.
