Handling White Collar Crimes in Federal Court
Our Winter Park, Florida, law office is accustomed to providing sophisticated federal criminal defense to industry professionals, businessmen, business women, professional contractors and other clients. From defending individuals and companies who drive their industries, to individuals and companies who contract with the federal government, we have become adept at dealing with the federal criminal charges clients face.
Among the white collar criminal charges Dempsey & Associates, P.A., has provided Florida and multi-state federal crime defense representation for include:
- Mail and wire fraud: It is a rare criminal activity (alleged or actual) that does not use telephones, e-mail, wire transfers or the U.S. mail. As such, federal prosecutors frequently pursue mail fraud and wire fraud charges because they are easy to prove. If convicted, these charges carry significant penalties, including prison sentences of 20 to 30 years. Contact our Sanford mail fraud lawyers for help.
- Bank fraud: Charges of bank fraud may be brought against anyone accused of falsifying information on a loan application, writing bad checks, or using the bank in some way to transfer funds illegally. Our attorneys are experienced in defending these complex financial fraud cases. Contact us to learn how we may be able to help you.
- Racketeering: Federal prosecutors often add racketeering and organized crime charges to fraud or other white collar crime cases in order to increase potential jail terms and fines. Under the Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), your charges can be used to tie together other defendants, thus exposing you to other serious charges you might not otherwise face. Such complex and aggressive tactics make it critical to have an experienced federal white collar criminal defense attorney on your side.
- Securities fraud: In today's world of financial 20/20 hindsight, you may be accused, as part of your company's management or ownership, of providing inaccurate information about the financial health of your company to the government, investors or banks. Dempsey & Associates, P.A., can handle all aspects of your defense of both potential criminal charges and civil claims stemming from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or other regulatory investigations.
- Medicaid fraud and Medicare fraud: Complex Medicaid and Medicare rules often trip up doctors, pharmacists and other medical professionals in health-related fields doing business with the federal government. Additionally, practices suggested by business, financial and accounting consultants can later be characterized as illegal and fraudulent, resulting in business practices that were once widely accepted to become targets of a federal investigation. Dempsey & Associates, P.A., has defended and assisted numerous physicians and other health care service providers to avoid or reduce liability for alleged fraudulent activities.
With the resources at the disposal of the federal government, extensive evidence is usually collected in federal criminal cases before charges are formally filed. We offer proven defense strategies that protect your rights and maximize the chances of avoiding criminal conviction, civil liability claims and accusations of professional malpractice.
