Potential Issues in Federal Criminal Cases

Various issues can arise during a federal criminal defense case that requires the expertise of the federal defense lawyers to resolve as quickly and strategically as possible. Here’s a small sampling of those issues:

Illegally-Obtained Evidence: When federal agents and prosecutors violate constitutional rights, any evidence obtained as a result of the violation may be deemed inadmissible.
Conspiracy Allegations: Many federal statutes contain conspiracy provisions, which do not require committing a substantive offense. These allegations can carry substantial fines and long-term imprisonment.
Attempt Allegations: Under federal law, individuals and organizations targetted for federal prosecution can also face charges for attempt even without evidence of a completed criminal offense.
Multiple Related and Unrelated Charges: In federal cases, defendants can face multiple charges for both related and unrelated crimes.
Confidential Informant or “Co-Conspirator” Testimony: Risk of another party who has a vested interest in the case testifying against you.
Sentencing Guidelines: The potential sentences in most federal criminal cases are outlined in the Federal Sentencing Guidelines (the “Guidelines”).

Potential Penalties in Federal Criminal Cases

Federal criminal cases can carry severe penalties, which is why you need experienced federal defense attorneys like Spodek Law Group, P.C. on your side. The potential penalties in a federal criminal case may include:

Federal Imprisonment – for a minimum of several years or decades behind bars.
Probation – often sought rather than imprisonment.
Fines – which can far surpass what most people and companies cannot afford to pay.
Restitution, Recoupments, and Other Financial Penalties – defendants may be sentenced to restitution, recoupments, and other financial penalties.
Other Statutory Penalties – such as Medicare and Medicaid exclusion (in cases of healthcare fraud) and loss of eligibility for DEA or SEC registration.
