Potential Issues in Federal Criminal Cases
There are several challenges that can arise during the course of a federal criminal defense case. While they may vary depending on the specific details of your case, its crucial to have an experienced defense attorney working on your matter to handle any issues that may emerge. Below are some common issues that we deal with:
1) Illegally Obtained Evidence When conducting a federal investigation, federal agents and prosecutors are limited by the protections provided under the U.S. Constitution. Any evidence obtained as a result of violating these protections may be deemed illegally-obtained, and therefore inadmissible in court. You need to make sure that illegally-obtained evidence is kept out of your trial, and our attorneys can do that for you.
2) Conspiracy Allegations You can face substantial fines and long-term imprisonment even if you did not commit a substantive offense. Various federal statutes have conspiracy provisions that the prosecutors may use against you. They only need to argue that you were party to a formal or informal agreement to commit a crime for you to get prosecuted in federal court.
3) Attempt Allegations – You can also face charges for attempts related to the completed criminal offense; often, the penalties for the attempted crime carry the same weight as the actual charge. Thus, individuals and organizations depending on defense strategies that could expose them to prosecution must be incredibly cautious to avoid making these kinds of statements.
4) Multiple Related and Unrelated Charges Federal prosecutors often target multiple charges for both related and unrelated crimes; under the broad language of mail fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering statutes, almost any criminal offense could trigger prosecution in court. Healthcare providers often confront multiple healthcare-related offenses, companies face various corporate crimes, and involved enterprises may entail several accusers simultaneously.
5) Confidential Informant or Co-Conspirator Testimony The prosecutor may obtain testimony from a confidential informant or an asserted co-conspirator, which could undermine everything youve built up for years. If someone testifies against you, we will work tirelessly to clean your name and mitigate the risk of them compromising your case.
6) Sentencing Guidelines Under most federal criminal cases, sentencing guidelines establish the range of potential fines and prison sentences. Though its not binding, lawyers and judges often rely on the guideline in determining what penalties to seek and impose in the event of a conviction at trial.
The Potential Penalties in Federal Criminal Cases
Every federal criminal case is different; thus, every penalty and sentencing guideline is unique to each case. Regardless, you need to be aware of whats at stake for you when facing a federal prosecution. Our Dallas criminal defense lawyers have specifically dealt with every issue related to the cases against our clients, some of which include:
1) Federal Imprisonment Defendants face years of incarceration in many serious federal crimes, and aggravating factors increase potential prison sentence exponentially.
2) Probation Securing probation often means securing the possible reduced sentencing guidelines in exchange for imprisonment.
3) Fines Statutory fines can accrue significantly for individual and corporate defendants, increasing the probability of being financially ruined.
4) Restitution, Recoupments, and Other Financial Penalties – Defendants convicted of certain offenses may also be subject to restitution, recoupments, and other financial penalties.
5) Other Statutory Penalties Additional statutory penalties may include exclusion from Medicare and Medicaid or loss of eligibility for DEA or SEC registration.
