| White Collar Crimes |
|
| A "white collar"
crime is a class of crimes committed by professionals,
business people and public officials that
generally involves a deliberate attempt to
mislead others. Most white collar crimes involve
some form of theft or fraudulent representation
for the purpose of obtaining money under misleading
circumstances. |
|
Most white collar
offenders are ordinary people who for a multitude
of reasons make rash or uncharacteristically
poor decisions. They see their way out of
difficulty through illegal and fraudulent
means. Often, a good defense can be found
for these situations.
Several key considerations come into play
in facing white collar charges. |
|
| Financial Damages
and Restitution |
| The penalty
for a white collar conviction can include
extremely how amounts of restitution that
could keep you indebted for the rest of your
life. The restitution amounts depend in large
part on the prosecution's ability to prove
damages. Disproving or mitigating these damages
must be a top consideration of your defense
team. |
|
| Prison Sentencing
|
| Sentencing guidelines
can dictate a particular amount of prison
time for each count or for each X dollars
of damage. Judges often have wide latitude
in issuing prison sentences in these crimes.
The right defense team can have a dramatic
outcome on the amount of prison time you serve
or whether you even are sentenced to prison
at all. |
|
| Professional Reputation
|
| Even if you
avoid prison time and severe financial penalties,
the conviction on a white collar crime can
destroy your professional reputation and career.
The mere accusation of misconduct can damage
your career. For this reason, white collar
accusations should be aggressively defended
even when the prosecution's case appears to
be flimsy. |
|
| Embezzlement
is the illegal transfer of money or property
that although possessed legally by the embezzler,
is diverted to the embezzler personally by
his or her fraudulent action. |
