We defend clients against complex white-collar accusations across California.
Call now for immediate legal help.
Being accused of a white-collar crime can damage your reputation, career, and future long before a case reaches court. These investigations move quietly but aggressively, and prosecutors often spend months gathering financial data before making an arrest.
If you believe you’re being investigated — or you’ve already been charged — you need a California defense attorney who understands the financial, digital, and legal complexity of these cases.
White Collar Crimes Types We Handle
What Are White Collar Crimes?
White-collar crimes are non-violent offenses built around allegations of deception, financial misconduct, or misuse of professional trust. They often involve documents, data, and digital communication rather than physical evidence.
Examples include fraud, embezzlement, money laundering, forgery, identity theft, bribery, cyber-financial crimes, tax-related offenses, and corporate or investment misconduct.
These cases are often technical and document-heavy, which means your defense depends on precision and early action.
Possible Penalties
Although these crimes don’t involve violence, the consequences can be severe.
California law allows for prison sentences, heavy fines, restitution, loss of professional licenses, and long-term damage to your reputation. Some cases also trigger federal involvement, which can increase the stakes significantly.
If the alleged financial loss is high, sentencing enhancements may apply — adding extra years to a potential sentence.
This is why early intervention is critical.

If You’re Being Investigated — Do This Immediately
You may feel the urge to explain yourself or “clear things up,” but this often causes more harm than good. The most important steps are:
- Do not speak to investigators without an attorney
- Do not hand over documents, devices, or passwords unless required by law
- Do not discuss the situation with coworkers or friends
- Do contact a defense lawyer as soon as possible
One conversation, one email, or one document can change the entire direction of your case — let us guide you safely.
