Factors that Make White Collar Crime Prosecutions Different

Here are some of the distinguishing characteristics about white collar crimes:

Federal charges may be involved, which carry stiffer penalties and bigger potential consequences
Federal or state organizations may have conducted an in-depth investigation into the case before bringing charges against you, so the weight of the evidence may be stronger
Prosecutors don’t bring these types of cases without believing they’ll win, because they want good publicity

These factors demonstrate why the choice of criminal defense lawyer you choose is so pivotal.
