About White Collar Crime Charges in San Diego
Financial crimes such as embezzlement, fraud and forgery are often referred to as "white collar" crimes. Such allegations are usually serious and are charged as felonies. If you or someone you love is being investigated or has been charged with such a crime, you should speak with an experienced San Diego criminal defense lawyer at Ardalan & Associates for help. The sooner you contact our offices, the faster we can investigate the evidence or testimony being used against you and advise you on your best legal options. The resources that the state and federal agencies can call upon in such cases can be quite extensive. You will want a firm whose lawyers are backed by dedicated research and investigatory staff who are prepared to present your defense case to the prosecution and win.
White collar crimes can be prosecuted as either a state or federal crime depending on the circumstances. Above and beyond the monetary fines and possible prison sentence a person may suffer if convicted, there is the enormous damage that can be caused to their personal and business reputation and future employment. Our lawyers understand the tremendous pressure that can follow in the wake of such an investigation and charges. We will work diligently to protect your reputation and fight the accusations made against you.
