Is it true that the FBI might be involved in my case? This is a possibility, particularly if your crime is a federal offense.

I just found out that I'm under investigation for a crime, but no charges have been filed. What can I do? Even at this point, it is important to consult an attorney regarding your situation. This is a preventative measure that may be able to help you avoid having charges filed against you at all.

What is a "white collar" crime? These are offenses, usually non-violent, which involve fraud, theft or other crimes committed by a business person or an individual in a corporate environment. Bankruptcy fraud, mail fraud, identity theft, money laundering and counterfeiting are all white collar crimes.

What makes a crime a federal offense? When a crime is committed which involves trespassing or destroying federal property, this is a federal offense. Interstate crimes are also classified as federal offenses and are investigated and prosecuted by federal agencies.

What penalties will I face if convicted of a white collar crime? This will depend upon your specific charges, but often will include imprisonment in a Florida state prison, large fines, restitution and more.
