Criminal Attorney Serving San Fernando Valley
White Collar Crimes Lawyer in Van Nuys, CA
A white collar crime is a criminal act that occurs within a business, corporate, or company setting. These crimes tend to involve the theft of large sums of money and are committed by people who are within prominent positions. Commonly committed white collar crimes include: embezzlement, money laundering, bribery, insider trading, RICO, tax evasion, fraud, extortion, and blackmail.
When a person is convicted of a white collar crime, he/she may be punished with time in jail, fines, restitution, community service, and probation. The length and severity will depend upon the crime the offender committed, the amount of money involved with the crime the offender committed, if the offender has a prior criminal record, and if the offender has prior white collar crime convictions.
White collar crimes cost the United States Government millions of dollars annually. For this reason, crimes of this nature are always heavily investigated and vigorously prosecuted. White collar crimes also tend to generate a great deal of interest from the media, which can quickly become invasive to the privacy and rights of the person being charged or convicted.
