Federal Defense Attorney for Money Laundering Charges
Conviction for money laundering and other white collar crimes brings with it heavy penalties that often include lengthy prison time and substantial fines. In addition, an individual's personal and professional reputations may be seriously damaged. If you are under investigation for money laundering, do not wait until charges are brought before you contact a defense attorney.
By obtaining the services of a federal defense attorney early in the process, you take steps to protect your rights and reputation. For federal white collar crimes, call the Atlanta-based Law Office of Marcia G. Shein, P.C., Federal Criminal Law Center.
Money Laundering, Fraud and White Collar Crimes
Many of the money laundering charges brought by the federal government involve fraudulent actions designed to conceal the true source of income — an illegal enterprise. A typical money laundering scenario involves a shell business that is set up for the purpose of sanitizing illegally gotten gains in drug cases or white collar fraud cases.
Money laundering charges are often combined with other charges, including those related to white collar crimes, like fraud, embezzlement or drug offenses, like possession with intent to distribute drugs or sale and purchase of narcotics, as well as RICO violations.
