The term white-collar crime refers to crime that is economic in nature, committed by business professionals through fraud, deception, and theft. Subject to prosecution under both federal and state laws, white-collar offenses are punishable by probation, house arrest, repayment of stolen funds, fines, and imprisonment. With the surge of high profile white-collar crimes in the last decade, the level of media scrutiny on accused individuals is higher than ever. By nature, white-collar crime cases usually involve a large volume of documents and bank records upon which the prosecution relies to build its case. If you have been accused of committing a white-collar crime, you deserve a qualified attorney who is willing to conduct a detailed and thorough examination of each piece of evidence in your case. Frequently, experts in accounting, money laundering, insurance, off-shore bank accounts, etc. may be needed to properly represent a person charged with a white collar crime. I have represented individuals in many cases relating to bank fraud, insurance fraud, investment fraud, stock trading fraud, money laundering, and mail and wire fraud.
