Providing You with Strong Defense Against Serious Charges

How Are Federal Crimes Defined?

A state-level criminal offense, such as a drug crime, may be elevated to a federal crime for various reasons. One of the most common ways in which this occurs is when an individual is arrested by a federal officer or arrested on a federal land. It can also happen when an informant tells law enforcement about a person’s illegal activities.

Particularly serious offenses, such as child pornography and certain computer crimes, may also be charged as federal crimes. Whether you were charged with drug trafficking and distribution, counterfeiting, drug smuggling, or any other federal crime, we can fight for you.

What Should You Look For in a Federal Crimes Lawyer?

When looking for a federal crimes lawyer, there are several key factors to consider:

  1. Experience: Look for a lawyer who has experience handling federal criminal cases similar to yours. This will ensure that they are familiar with the laws and procedures specific to federal criminal cases.

  2. Success rate: Research the lawyer's track record of success in federal criminal cases. Look for a lawyer who has a history of obtaining favorable outcomes for their clients.

  3. Communication: Look for a lawyer who is a good communicator and who will keep you informed about the status of your case. The lawyer should be accessible and responsive to your questions and concerns.

  4. Reputation: Look for a lawyer who has a good reputation in the legal community. You can ask other lawyers, judges or even clients for references.

  5. Professionalism: Look for a lawyer who is professional in their conduct and who will represent you with integrity and ethical standards.

  6. Resources: Look for a lawyer who has access to the necessary resources to mount a strong defense on your behalf, including investigators, experts and other professionals.

  7. Understanding: Look for a lawyer who understand the gravity of the situation, and is willing to fight for your rights and interests.

It's important to note that, finding a lawyer who specializes in federal criminal defense is essential since the federal system is different than state systems, and the lawyer must have the necessary experience, knowledge and understanding of the laws, procedures, and the federal court system.
