Jacksonville Financial Crimes and Fraud Defense Lawyers

Trial-Proven Defense of Florida Business Owners and Professionals

White collar criminal cases are challenging to build and prosecute, often requiring a lengthy investigation and many interviews. Once charges are filed — often in federal court, where sentences are especially harsh and prosecutors are highly skilled — the battle is uphill.

The quality and commitment of your Florida defense attorney can make all the difference at this point or earlier, during the government or internal corporate investigation. Please do not wait to get counsel from a Jacksonville fraud defense attorney with extensive trial experience and deep knowledge of how financial crime cases are built, won and lost.

Experience Across the Spectrum of Business Fraud and Financial Crimes

White collar criminal defense has been a focus of my law practice for more than 20 years, and my trial experience in this area has been wide-ranging, including cases of:

• Many forms of fraud, racketeering, conspiracy, embezzlement, extortion and enterprise corruption — ranging from health care, Medicare and Medicaid fraud to mail fraud, wire fraud, securities fraud and other allegations against brokers and brokerage houses
• Kickback schemes, corporate theft, bribery and extortion
• Criminal and civil tax prosecutions, often associated with failure to file returns or pay taxes on illicit or legitimate business income
• Intersecting investigations and activities such as drug distribution or trafficking and money laundering
• Computer fraud and other Internet crimes arising from investment schemes and other illegal uses of technology
