Peoria White Collar Crime Attorney Representing Illinois Defendants

Man in suit wearing handcuffsWhite collar crimes cause substantial harm to people’s lives and to society as a whole. Many mistakenly believe that such offenses are not as severe as violent crimes because they do not involve physical harm against another person. The truth of the matter, however, is that financial offenses have the potential to harm a greater number of victims than do many one-time violent acts. Defendants charged with a white collar offense face charges in either Illinois State Court or in Federal Court. Retaining a lawyer familiar with the system can be crucial to the outcome of the case. I am a Peoria white collar crime attorney who protects the rights of the accused. Contact my office today to schedule an initial consultation.
