Defending Clients Against Federal White Collar Crime Charges

Mail and wire fraud charges are often used to bring fraud cases into federal court, where penalties can be stiffer and procedures can be less flexible than in state court. If you have been charged with mail or wire fraud, you need to consult an experienced federal defense lawyer.

Understanding And Fighting Mail And Wire Fraud Indictments

In order to be able to prosecute an individual or business in the federal justice system, the prosecution needs to establish federal court jurisdiction over the case. One of the most common ways this is done is by including a mail fraud or wire fraud charge in the indictment.

• Mail fraud charges involve the use of the U.S. mail to commit a fraud offense.
• Wire fraud is the use of a telephone, the internet or a fax machine to commit fraud.

Between the two of them, these charges are used to prosecute a wide range of alleged fraudulent schemes and other white collar crimes. If you have been charged with one of these offenses, we can help you understand and pursue your federal criminal defense options.
