White Collar Defense
Your career, your reputation, your freedom. Federal prosecutors have unlimited resources. You need an attorney who fights at their level.
White Collar Cases Are Won Before Trial
Federal white collar investigations often take months or years before charges are filed. If you know you're under investigation — or if you've just been charged — the strategic decisions made in the first weeks will define the entire case. I have navigated federal grand jury subpoenas, SEC investigations, and DOJ inquiries. Early intervention is everything.
White collar defense requires both legal expertise and an understanding of finance, accounting, and corporate structure. I work closely with forensic accountants and financial experts to challenge the government's theory of the case at every level.
Charges We Defend
Defending Against the Federal Government
- Intent Challenges — Most white collar crimes require proof of criminal intent. Mistake, negligence, or reliance on professional advice can negate intent entirely.
- Challenging the Paper Trail — Government investigators cherry-pick documents. We review the full record and present the context they left out.
- Cooperation Strategy — Sometimes cooperation makes sense. We evaluate every factor and negotiate the best possible terms when that path is appropriate.
- Restitution & Sentencing Mitigation — If convicted, we fight to minimize penalties, restitution, and incarceration through aggressive sentencing advocacy.
Under Investigation? Act Now — Before Charges Are Filed
If you've received a grand jury subpoena, a target letter from the DOJ, or a visit from federal agents, you are under investigation. You do not have to wait to be charged to hire an attorney. In fact, engaging counsel immediately gives us the best opportunity to influence the outcome — sometimes before any charges are ever filed.
