If you have been arrested or are under investigation by a federal agency such as the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration), or ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), you need a competent and aggressive lawyer at your side to defend your Constitutional rights. Although the prospect of a federal investigation may be daunting and you may feel that you have little to no chance of challenging the evidence that the FBI or other agency brings against you, these organizations still need to abide by certain procedures and must also observe your rights at all times. A lawyer experienced with federal crimes will be able to ensure that you are not taken advantage of in any way in this regard.

About Federal Crimes

The general definition of a federal crime is an act which is committed in violation of United States criminal code. However, regular criminal offenses, such as DUI, committed on federal property may also be charged in Federal Court. Some common federal crimes include those committed against the government, offenses involving crossed state lines or national borders, and crimes committed on federal property. Any of these offenses may result in extremely harsh penalties if the defendant is convicted, as Federal Sentencing Guidelines provide for severe criminal penalties and allow little deviation on the part of the judge who determines the final sentence.
