Defending Those Charged With White-Collar Crimes
White-collar crimes are no longer the strict domain of business people and politicians diverting funds for financial gain. The internet age has ushered in a new era of computer-based fraud that includes identity theft, credit card fraud, theft of intellectual property and new crimes that have yet to be named. While the victims were not physically injured, law enforcement and government officials are proactive on the state and federal level in pursuing prosecution. These charges can involve massive fines and lengthy jail sentences, so it is always best to speak with an attorney knowledgeable in these matters as soon as possible.
