Baton Rouge Federal Criminal Defense Attorney
Federal criminal defense cases are different from State criminal cases. The federal rules of procedure are not flexible. The charges are usually difficult to challenge. And, the penalties are severe. Furthermore, the Government will expend tremendous resources in its attempt to obtain convictions. By the time you find out that you are under investigation in the Federal criminal justice system, the FBI, and Assistant US Attorney have been working for weeks, if not months, to build a case against you.
If you are a subject, or the target, of a federal investigation, or you have been charged with a federal crime, you need a serious and experienced federal criminal defense lawyer. You need a law firm with experience in fighting the government and bringing cases to trial in the federal system.
