White Collar Crimes

Atlanta, Georgia White Collar Criminal Defense Attorney

White collar crimes typically refer to a type of crime committed by business people, entrepreneurs, public officials, and professionals through deception, as opposed to street crimes which tend to involve force and violence. Examples of white-collar crimes include corporate crimes (such as embezzlement, bribery, extortion, larceny), fraud (e.g., bank fraud, mortgage fraud, tax fraud, healthcare fraud, insurance fraud, bankruptcy fraud, mail fraud, wire fraud), telemarketing schemes, securities and commodities law violations, environmental law violations, price fixing, racketeering, loan sharking, black market operations, obstruction of justice and perjury, and computer crimes.

Depending on whether federal or state law has been violated, white collar crimes can be prosecuted at the federal or state level. Penalties vary, but in some cases can result in large fines, restitution, and jail time.  

At The Federal Law Group in Atlanta, Georgia, we have defended clients who have been charged with all types of white collar crimes, including employees of companies charged with embezzlement and clients who are charged with money laundering, RICO, and identitiy theft.
