Award-Winning Philadelphia Criminal Defense Lawyers Dedicated to Getting Results in Federal White Collar Cases

Although white collar crimes usually involve some type of financial deception, accusations of white collar criminal activity must be taken as seriously as a violent criminal accusation.  Conviction for a federal white collar crime can result in serious prison time, monetary fines, forfeitures and more. When your freedom and business reputation are at risk, you need an aggressive and trusted lawyer by your side to advocate on your behalf.

White collar crimes are governed by a complicated network of laws at the federal level—many of which are frequently evolving.  Advances in technology have also changed the way white collar crimes are prosecuted. 

At the Marrone Law Firm, LLC, our white collar criminal defense lawyers pride ourselves on remaining at the forefront of innovations in both law and technology.  Our dedication to detail is often instrumental in formulating the most compelling defense possible in your case. 

When do You Need a Federal White Collar Criminal Defense Lawyer in Philadelphia?

Although some time usually passes before clients learn they are suspected of committing a white collar crime, you should seek legal advice if any of the following have happened:

• You have heard rumors that you are under investigation
• You have received a grand jury subpoena
• You have received a “target letter”
• Federal agents have shown up at your place of business, office or home

Elements of a Federal White Collar Criminal Charge

Every federal white collar criminal charge requires that the prosecution prove a specific set of elements beyond a reasonable doubt to convict.  At the Marrone Law Firm, LLC, our seasoned federal white collar criminal defense lawyers conduct a thorough investigation of your case to uncover every available piece of evidence.  For example, if you are charged with embezzlement under federal law, the prosecution will be required to show:

• You had access to funds or property
• That access was due to a special position of trust you held, whether in relation to a client or because of your employment status, known as a fiduciary relationship
• You stole or transferred that money or property for personal gain
• You acted intentionally and intended to deprive the true owner of possession of the property

We thoroughly investigate to gather evidence to build a strong defense, which can involve showing that the prosecution lacked sufficient evidence to prove any element of the crime.  

Other defenses may include:

• Lack of intent
• Duress
• Entrapment
• Incapacity
• Constitutional violations
