Fort Lauderdale White Collar Crime Lawyer
At the Law Offices of A. Randall Haas in Fort Lauderdale, we defend persons accused of state and federal fraud cases and other white collar crimes, particularly those alleged to involve computers or the Internet. If you need the advice and representation of an experienced white collar crime defense attorney, contact our office for a free initial consultation.
As in many of our other criminal defense cases, the defense of white collar crimes often depends upon the effective early engagement with the prosecution in order to develop an effective defense strategy and shake the government's confidence in its own case. Contrary to what you might have seen on television, trial before a jury is not the best opportunity for most defendants to achieve a good outcome - more often than not, it's a last desperate chance. The most effective client service we provide usually occurs in the earliest stages of the case, even before charges are formally filed.
Our aggressive early intervention on your behalf can result in the reduction, elimination, or dismissal of the most serious charges against you. In certain cases, your defense will benefit even more from the early involvement of forensic accountants to analyze and challenge the financial or business data that forms the foundation of the prosecution's case.
Examples of the kinds of fraud and financial crime cases that we can handle on your behalf include:
- Money laundering
- Employee theft or embezzlement
- Insurance fraud, bank fraud, mortgage fraud, or health care fraud
- Perjury or obstruction of justice
- Identity theft or credit card theft
- Internet scams, computer hacking, or theft of confidential information
- Possession or distribution of child pornography, online solicitation of minors for sex, and other computer sex crimes
If you operate a business under federal investigation for fraud or other financial offenses, we can represent you in the grand jury phase of the proceedings before you're even indicted. If you need to give the government documents, computer files, or other evidence while the investigation is underway, we can negotiate the turnover of evidence so that an FBI raid won't shut your business down.
