Experience in White Collar Criminal Defense

Embezzlement
Criminal Fraud
Larceny
Identity Theft

The Option to Resolve a White Collar Crime Civilly

Following the initial accusation of a white collar crime, you may have time to resolve the matter in a civil setting as opposed to a criminal proceeding. Prior to a referral made to the district attorney, we will attempt to secure a civil disposition by negotiating with the victim. Given that this step is vital and time is truly of the essence, you should not wait for an arrest to contact our office.

There are risks for the purported victims in prosecuting a white collar crime. Many businesses simply do not want to go public and reveal that their employee stole from them. A perception of not handling their money well will likely affect potential business. Restitution can be the best option in keeping you out of jail and the company free from bad publicity. We will negotiate on your behalf to avoid a criminal sentence and subsequent record.
