WHITE COLLAR CRIME

The sooner you have competent counsel involved, the better position you will be in if and when formal charges are filed.  Speaking to the police or other federal agents without counsel on your side is one of the biggest mistakes people make.  If you have been asked to speak to the authorities and/or told you don’t need an attorney because you either have nothing to hide or it will get worse if you “lawyer up”, don’t be fooled; whether you believe that you haven’t done anything wrong or not don’t go alone.  Call us for a free consultation before you make a mistake you cannot fix.
