White Collar Crime Attorney in NYC
What is a white collar crime?
White collar crime can be defined as any non-violent criminal act that
is carried out with the intention of unlawful financial gain. Typically
this type of crime is related to business, finance or politics—hence
the name, white collar crime—but is not strictly limited to white
collar workers.
Unlike a lot of other offenses in New York, these types of crimes often
involve a certain level of sophistication in their execution—which
makes it all the more difficult to prove and subsequently prosecute. To
defend against the serious penalties of a conviction, however, legal representation
should be acquired as soon as the charges are waged.
White collar crime includes countless criminal acts under the law, but
some of the most common types include:
Whether you have been formally charged with a crime of this nature or you
are simply under investigation, it is imperative that you act quickly
in the interest of your defense. The consequences of a conviction are
often severe, including extensive prison sentences and restitution for
all unlawful financial gain. If you hope to avoid a conviction and all
consequent penalties, it is in your best interest to enlist the help of
a firm that fully understands the scope of the laws related to white collar crime.
