Federal Grand Jury Appearances
We have extensive experience representing people who have been called to testify before a Grand Jury, either as a witness or as a person of interest who may later be charged with a federal crime. If you have been subpoenaed to appear, it is extremely important to get legal counsel before you respond in any way. Even innocent people can find themselves in trouble for things that were said to law enforcement or a Grand Jury.
You do not have to testify just because you have been subpoenaed. We can review your situation and advise you whether it is in your best interest to cooperate, to give oral testimony or written testimony, or to refuse to speak.
Appeals
Federal criminal charges are extremely difficult to defend against because the government has extensive resources to bring to its investigation before charges are filed. However, mistakes can be made in court that allow someone convicted of a federal crime a second chance to be heard. Our defense attorneys handle criminal and civil appeals.
