White collar crime encompasses many illegal activities, typically involving deceit, concealment, or a breach of trust. Here are some of the key types of cases we handle at Rossen Law Firm:
Corporate espionage involves the theft of trade secrets, proprietary information, or other confidential business data to gain a competitive edge. Whether you’re accused of obtaining sensitive information from a competitor or leaking your company’s secrets, these charges can be life-altering. We analyze the evidence, question the motives behind the accusations, and work to dismantle the case against you. Corporate espionage cases often rely on circumstantial evidence, which we meticulously review to expose weaknesses in the prosecution’s arguments.
Extortion and bribery charges often arise in complex business dealings where the lines between legal and illegal conduct can blur. If you’re accused of using threats or coercion to obtain money, property, or favors, or if you’re accused of offering or accepting bribes, you’re facing serious legal consequences.
Our defense strategies in these cases often focus on the intent behind the actions and the context in which they occurred. We scrutinize the circumstances to argue that your actions were lawful or that the prosecution’s interpretation of events is flawed.
Mortgage fraud can include various activities, from falsifying information on loan applications to using straw buyers to secure loans. These cases often involve mountains of financial documents and complex transactions. We dig into the details, identifying inconsistencies in the prosecution’s case and presenting alternative explanations for the alleged fraudulent activity. Our goal is to show that discrepancies were honest mistakes or the result of misleading advice rather than intentional fraud.
Racketeering and RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) charges are some of the most serious white collar crimes you can face. These charges often involve allegations of participating in an ongoing criminal enterprise, which can include everything from fraud to money laundering to drug trafficking.
Defending against RICO charges requires a deep understanding of the law and the alleged criminal enterprise. Your Roseen Law Firm Palm Beach Gardens white collar defense lawyer will work to dismantle the prosecution’s case by challenging the evidence, questioning the credibility of witnesses, and demonstrating you weren’t involved in any criminal activities.
Bankruptcy fraud can involve concealing assets, making false statements, or other activities intended to deceive creditors or the bankruptcy court. These cases often hinge on financial records, and our approach involves a thorough examination of all documents involved. We look for errors, oversights, or ambiguities we can use to argue that misrepresentations were unintentional or resulted from poor advice from financial advisors. By challenging the evidence, we aim to show that you didn’t knowingly commit fraud.
Wire fraud is a broad charge that can apply to many types of fraudulent schemes conducted via electronic communications, including email scams and fraudulent transactions conducted over the Internet. Because wire fraud charges can be based on relatively vague allegations, our defense strategies often focus on the specific communications involved. We analyze the content of the communications, the context, and the intent behind them to build a defense that questions the prosecution’s narrative.
Bank fraud involves using deceit to obtain money, assets, or other property from a bank or financial institution. This offense can include check, credit card, or loan fraud. These cases typically involve extensive financial documentation, and our defense approach involves scrutinizing every detail. Your Rossen Law Firm attorney will look for inconsistencies, errors, or signs of procedural mishandling that can weaken the prosecution’s case. We aim to demonstrate that irregularities weren’t part of an intentional scheme to defraud.
White collar crimes can be incredibly complex, but several defense strategies can be effective depending on the specifics of your case. Here are some of the strategies we might employ:
Every crime has a statute of limitations, during which law enforcement authorities must bring charges. The court may dismiss charges if the alleged crime occurred outside this time frame. We thoroughly examine the timeline of events to determine if the statute of limitations has expired. In cases where it has, we can file a motion to dismiss the charges, saving you the stress and cost of a trial.
In some cases, cooperating with authorities can lead to reduced charges or a more favorable outcome. If you’re willing to provide information or assistance that can be valuable to the prosecution, we can negotiate a deal that mitigates the penalties you face. However, you must be careful in your cooperation to ensure you’re not admitting to crimes you didn’t commit or putting yourself at greater risk. We work to strike the right balance between cooperation and maintaining your innocence.
Many white collar crimes require the prosecution to prove you intended to commit the illegal act. If we can show that you lacked intent – perhaps you made an honest mistake, misunderstood the law, or acted on advice from others – we can argue that you shouldn’t be criminally liable. We gather evidence supporting the argument that your actions weren’t done with criminal intent, weakening the prosecution’s case.
If law enforcement coerced or pressured you into illegal activity, we can argue you’re a victim of entrapment. This defense requires showing that the idea of committing the crime came from the authorities and not from you. We’ll work to gather evidence of how the situation unfolded, including communications with law enforcement, to build a strong entrapment defense.
When your case goes to trial, your Rossen Law Firm Palm Beach Gardens white collar defense lawyer will be your advocate in the courtroom. Here’s how we often defend clients in court:
We’ll present evidence that supports your defense, whether it’s documentation that disproves the prosecution’s claims, witness testimony that casts doubt on their narrative, or expert analysis that challenges their evidence.
The strength of your defense often hinges on the quality and relevance of the evidence we present. We carefully select and prepare this evidence to ensure it’s as compelling as possible. This might include financial records that refute the prosecution’s allegations, emails or communications that provide context, or expert testimony that offers an alternative interpretation of the facts.
Our goal is to create a clear and persuasive narrative that supports your innocence or, at the very least, raises enough doubt to challenge the prosecution’s case.
Cross-examining the prosecution’s witnesses is a key part of your defense. The prosecution will likely rely on witness testimony to build their case against you, and we’ll meticulously question these witnesses to undermine their credibility.
We’ll look for inconsistencies in their statements, challenge their interpretation of events, and expose any biases or motives that might influence their testimony. By carefully dissecting their accounts, we’ll work to show that their version of events is unreliable or incomplete. Effective cross-examination can significantly weaken the prosecution’s case by casting doubt on the accuracy and truthfulness of their key witnesses.
Throughout the trial, we’ll make legal arguments that challenge the prosecution’s interpretation of the law. We can argue that the charges don’t meet the legal definition of the alleged crime, that the evidence is insufficient, or that procedural errors tainted the prosecution’s case.
For instance, we might argue that certain actions attributed to you don’t actually constitute a criminal offense under the law or that the prosecution’s evidence fails to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. These legal arguments are crucial in persuading the judge or jury to find you not guilty or to dismiss the charges entirely. We’ll use our understanding of the law to highlight weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and to advocate for your acquittal.
