I represent people who:
- have been charged in federal court with a crime;
- are under investigation for a federal crime; or
- have received a subpoena from
I also represent people who have been convicted in federal court and want to appeal their conviction or their sentence to a federal court of appeals.
I represent people across the country and around the world. I have represented clients from Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, as well as clients from New York, Massachusetts, California, Arizona, Texas, and Mexico and Brazil.
The people I help are often going through the worst experiences of their lives. People under suspicion for committing a federal crime are often facing the possible loss of their careers, their freedom, and their ability to be with their children as they grow. The stakes couldn’t be higher.
If you have been accused of a federal crime, it has the potential to disrupt your entire life. While the firm has the resources to handle complex problems, I take each client’s case myself, and I am the lawyer responsible for how the case proceeds. This individual attention matters – you can see it in how former clients describe having worked with me.
A lot of criminal defense lawyers practice mainly in state court and come to a United States District Court only occasionally. I don’t. If your problem is a state court problem, you should hire a state court lawyer. If your problem is a federal court problem, hire someone with experience in federal court.
Federal criminal practice is unique. Whether the allegations involve white-collar offenses – like public corruption, health care fraud, money laundering, computer crimes, or a securities offense – or other kinds of crimes, the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure are the same in every federal court across the country.
