The government has vast resources, and the consequences of a conviction can include decades in federal prison.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between state and federal criminal charges?
Federal charges are prosecuted in federal court by U.S. Attorneys and generally carry much harsher penalties than state charges. Federal cases often involve more government resources, longer investigations, and significantly higher potential prison sentences.
What types of federal cases do you handle?
We handle a wide range of federal criminal matters including drug trafficking and conspiracy charges, federal firearm offenses, white collar crimes and fraud, bank robbery, and other serious federal offenses prosecuted in federal court.
Why do I need a lawyer experienced in federal court?
Federal court has its own rules, procedures, and prosecutors. Experience in state court does not always translate directly. An attorney familiar with federal practice can better navigate the system and protect your rights.
