Alabama White Collar Crime Attorneys
White collar crimes differ from other crimes in many ways, including the manner in which the offenses are prosecuted. Generally, suspects of white collar crimes, such as embezzlement and fraud, know that they are the subjects of investigations long before any charges are formally filed. This is due to the fact that investigations for these crimes are quite lengthy and detailed.
If you have learned that you are under investigation for a white collar crime like embezzlement, it is important that you consult with an experienced lawyer as soon as possible. If you have already been arrested for an offense, you need to contact an attorney immediately to get the defense that you need.
Making early decisions about what to do during a state or federal investigation can have a large effect on your future and the consequences that you may face if convicted. At Burke, Harvey & Frankowski, located in Birmingham, we provide experienced representation for clients investigated for and charged with white collar crimes in Alabama.
