Are You Being Investigated For Illegal Financial Gain?

White collar crimes refer to the financially motivated nonviolent crime committed by professionals, individuals and business entities. These cases involve illegal acts that are characterized by deceit, concealment or violation of trust and that are not dependent on the use of force.

Not only are the penalties severe for white collar crimes but the collateral consequences can be debilitating. The very moment a white collar crime investigation is initiated against you, your name, reputation and livelihood can be jeopardized.

White collar crimes can be investigated by both state and federal authorities. Typically, however, since many of the white collar investigations include federal laws, most are investigated by federal authorities. A wide range of crimes falls under the white collar umbrella, including mortgage fraud, money laundering, embezzlement, stock fraud and mail or wire fraud.
