White collar crimes are generally non-violent criminal offenses that are usually committed for monetary gain. The phrase “white collar crime” does not necessarily refer to the social status of the individual accused of committing the crime. Individuals of any social or economic status may be charged with a white collar crime.
White collar crimes may be prosecuted by either state or federal prosecutors depending upon which laws are allegedly broken and/or which law enforcement agency handles the investigation. Individuals convicted of white collar crimes have historically been subjected to less stringent punishments than individuals convicted of other types of crimes. However; this historical trend has drastically changed. Individuals accused of committing white collar crimes often find themselves facing both stiff financial fines and long prison sentences. While anyone may be accused of committing a white collar crime, those most routinely accused are often well-established in society and have a lot to lose if convicted. Our typical white collar crime client often has a high-level position with a reputable company, a family that depends on them, and a quality reputation to uphold in their community.
