Los Angeles Federal Crime Attorney
Have you been accused of a federal crime?
A federal crime is an offense against the United States that violates U.S. federal law. If you have been charged with a federal crime, contact a
Los Angeles criminal defense attorney experienced in federal cases for sound legal advice and skilled representation. When fighting federal crime charges, a lawyer that is knowledgeable in federal court procedures can be an extremely valuable asset.
Federal crimes are investigated by various agencies such as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Explosives (ATF). Depending on the extent of the crime, investigations can take many months before formal charges are filed. Early intervention by a qualified attorney can sometimes help direct the course of the investigation and prevent an indictment.

Tax evasion is a felony offense that involves false information on your tax returns.

Bank fraud is any attempt to defraud a bank and wire fraud is any attempt to defraud funds using financial wire transfers. You could be charged with money laundering if you are trying to hid money that has been illegally gained. Extortion is similar to blackmail in that it involves compelling an individual to give you funds by using threats or violence. It can also involve bribing a public official to perform an official act. Racketeering refers to a variety of dishonest business practices. Companies or individuals can incur large fines and loss of property if convicted of racketeering.
