White Collar Crime Attorney in New Hampshire
Accused of Fraud or a Financial Crime?
Also known as economic crimes, white-collar crimes arise from allegations of deceptive or fraudulent acts. White-collar crimes are often prosecuted as federal offenses and are usually handled in federal court instead of at the state or county level.
Common white-collar crimes include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Embezzlement
- Extortion
- Forgery
- Money laundering
- Tax evasion
- Conspiracy
- Insider trading / Securities fraud
- Pyramid / Ponzi schemes
- Identity theft
- Cyber crimes
- Counterfeiting
- Bribery
- Organized Crime / FICO
- Cryptocurrency Offenses
Hard working businesspeople are not immune to prosecution and facing allegations of criminal conduct, itself, may result in terrible professional and personal consequences for the accused. Shaheen & Gordon, P.A. has distinguished itself defending federal criminal cases. Hiring a lawyer once a person is aware that they or their corporation is under investigation is critical, as often immense damage is done once a charge is made public. Some of our greatest victories for our clients have been to prevent charges from being filed, so their names never are reported in the press.
Vigorous Defense for State & Federal Charges
In a challenging economy prosecutors have renewed their interest in pursuing criminal offenses arising in a business and corporate setting. Increasingly, the prosecution of white-collar cases results in prison sentences traditionally reserved for violent offenders. The Government is prioritizing fraud prosecutions for people and corporations who have received federal funds, often in a complicated and confusing regulatory framework.
Federal prosecutions can be very different from state prosecutions and call for a defense attorney who is knowledgeable and experienced in that Court.
Shaheen & Gordon has established strong working relationships with federal prosecutors and investigators. We apply a proactive approach to understanding the direction of a federal investigation and work creatively to develop a range of options to resolve our cases.
Our attorneys have held leadership positions in the federal criminal defense bar and are among the few that still try and win federal criminal cases. We understand the investigation of criminal cases at the federal level and the impact that the Federal sentencing Guideline continues to have on all phases of defending a federal criminal case.
